Then the number is 21 because 3 times 21 = 63
When 3 times a number is decreased by 4 the result is 17. what is the number?
It is: 3*3*3 = 27
33 and 1/3
If the number is n, then 8n/3
3 times 3 times 3 times 3
3 times 3 = 9 plus the number 3 = 12.
That number would have to be 3 times 21 = 63. 1/3 of 3 times anything number is the number itself. So 1/3 of 3 times 21 is 21.
Then the number is 21 because 3 times 21 = 63
71 times 3 =426
When 3 times a number is decreased by 4 the result is 17. what is the number?
27 times the number.
I am guessing you want to know what number times 3 is 27. The answer is 9.
It is: 3*3*3 = 27
3+4x x is a variable which takes the place of a number
10n = -30 n = -3
It is: 8/3 times 3 = 8
