First, translate the words into expressions:
"Two less than one-sixth [of] a certain number..."
((1/6) * X) - 2
"is"
=
"1 more than one-fourth that number"
((1/4) * X) + 1
so
((1/6) * X) - 2 = ((1/4) * X) + 1
((1/6) * X) = ((1/4) * X) + 3
X = ((6/4) * X) + 18
(1 - (6/4)) * X = 18
- (1/2) * X = 18
X = - 36
Answer: It stands for one more than 68 and one less than 70. Answer: Among several usages, it is used for a certain sexual position.
A negative number is less than a positive number. Think about it this way: a negative number is less than 0. A positive number is greater than 0. Therefore, a negative number must be less than a positive number.
7 less than a number is an algebraic expression. Given the number the expression can be evaluated. 7 is less than a number is a statement in the form of an inequality. It is true for some values of the number and not for others.
There is no such number. For if you considered 49.99 to be such a number, then 49.995 is a greater number and it is less than 50. And then 49.9955 is even greater and still less than 50. This process can go on without end.
The number that is 50 less than the number 185 is 135.

3x - 25 = x - 15 2x - 25 = -15 2x = 10 x = 5
the equation is 2x + 4 = x - 3 solving it yields x = -7
"Having a minimum amount, number, or quantity of" is the meaning of the English phrase "no less than." It therefore means the same as "no fewer than." There must be at least a certain number of items.
There were 1,817 tornadoes in the United States in 2004, a record high, the worldwide number is less certain.
If a "certain number of men" less 10 takes 20 days (twice as long) to finish the piece of work, then the "certain number of men" who can finish the work in 10 days would 20. If it takes 10 men less twice as long to do the work, then twice 10 men (20) can finish the job in 10 days.
Knowledge of numbers that appeared in the past will have no bearing on future numbers. The fact that a certain number appeared several times makes it no more, or less, likely for that combination to appear in the future.Knowledge of numbers that appeared in the past will have no bearing on future numbers.

True
The United States averages about 1200 tornadoes each year. Worldwide the number is less certain.
x/4 = 3x - 11 x = 12x - 44 11x = 44 x = 4
If you mean 45/60 then in its lowest terms it is 3/4
the result is a number less than the original number
