-12 is less than 4 - the difference between the two numbers is 16.
16
9+(x/4)=12 x/4=3 x=12
12 * * * * * NO! It has 4 more edges.
8+4 = 12 and 8-4 = 4
Is the answer to that 12? No. 3 times 4 is 12. 12 more than 4 is 16. So 3 times more than 4 is 16.
-12 is less than 4 - the difference between the two numbers is 16.
Three times more is NOT defined as "triple". Rather it is "triple more". Three times MORE than 4 is NOT 12. Three times AS MUCH as 4 is 12. Three times MORE than 4 is 12 more than 4, which is 16.
4/12 is 331/3% more than 4/16 .
It is: 12 minus 8 = 4
16
9+(x/4)=12 x/4=3 x=12
5
you are the number 48
I think it mean is 12-4
12 * * * * * NO! It has 4 more edges.
N+4=12 Then, you subtract 4 from each side N+4-4=12-4 So, N=8
