6 plus 4 times a number is 7 times the number?

Answer 1

To solve this equation, we need to set up an algebraic expression. Let's denote the number as x. The equation can be written as 6 + 4x = 7x. To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. By subtracting 4x from both sides, we get 6 = 3x. Finally, dividing both sides by 3 gives us x = 2.

Answer 2

let the number be x.

∴ 6 + 4x = 7x

∴ 6 = 7x - 4x

∴ 6 = 3x

∴ x = 6/3

∴ x = 2

Ans. The number is 2.
