Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x

Product: 4 * x

Add 5: 4x + 5

=

3x + 6

Now equate the two parts.

4x + 5 = 3x + 6               Subtract 5 from both sides

4x + 5 - 5 = 3x + 6 - 5   Combine

4x =  3x + 1                    Subtract 3x from both sides

4x-3x=3x -3x + 1          Combine

x = 1
