It's a simple algebraic equation ... a mathematical "riddle".
The answer to the riddle is: what the number must be.
Here's how to find it:
We don't know what the number is yet, but we have to give it some name.
I have decided to call it ' Q ' for now.
The riddle says that " Q/36 = 1/3 "
Mutiply each side of the riddle by 36:
Q = 108
14.4
The number is -36 because (1/3 of -36) + 11 = -1
The number is -36

1/2x+6=1/3x 3x+36=2x 3x=2x-36 x=-36
Answer: Nope.The quotient is 651,580.833 Answer: Try dividing 36 by 23456910. If you get a whole number, then yes, it is; otherwise no, it isn't.
The number is -36 because (1/3 of -36) + 11 = -1
The number is -36
