Question

6. The sum of three times a number and 11 is 32. Find the number.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x.

3x+11=32

3x=32-11

3x=21

x=21/3

x=7

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{Y=7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number, first you have to use the "y" to use a variable.

Solve.

$\displaystyle 3y+11=32$

First, subtract by 11 from both sides.

$\displaystyle 3y+11-11=32-11$

Solve.

$\displaystyle 32-11=21$

$\displaystyle 3y=21$

Next, divide by 3 from both sides.

$\displaystyle \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{21}{3}$

Then, solve.

$\displaystyle 21\div3=\boxed{7}$

In conclusion, the correct answer is y=7.
