Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2\ or\ n:3+5=2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2\\\\\dfrac{n}{3}-\text{the quotient of a number}\ n\ \text{ and 3}\\\\...+5-\text{five more than}[/tex]

If you want a solution:

[tex]\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2[/tex]          subtract 5 from both sides

[tex]\dfrac{n}{3}+5-5=2-5[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{n}{3}=-3[/tex]            multiply both sides by 3

[tex]3\!\!\!\!\diagup\cdot\dfrac{n}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup}=(3)(-3)\\\\n=-9[/tex]
