Nadia is incorrect, please check explanations for the correction to her work

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to validate the wok of Nadia

Let the number be n

5 times the number is 5 * n = 5n

Difference between 5n and 3 less than twice the number

3 less than twice the number is 2n-3

So it should be 2n-3 ;

The solution is thus;

5n - (2n-3) = 18

5n - 2n + 3 = 18

3n + 3 = 18

3n = 18-3

3n = 15

n = 15/3

n = 5
