Answer 1

Answer:

Twice a number increased by 8 is 20

twice a number increased by 8 = 8 × 2

( 2 times) = 16

Let the number be x

x = 20 - 16

x = 4

Answer 2

Answer :-

• The number = 6

Given :-

• Twice a number increased by 8 is 20.

To Find :-

• The number.

Step By Step Solution :-

Let us consider the number be x. Now it is given that twice a number increased by 8 is 20.

So equation will be ⤵

$\boxed{ \bf{ \purple{2x + 8 = 20}}}$

So let's do it !!

$\implies\sf \: 2x + 8 = 20 \\ \\ \implies\sf 2x = 20 - 8 \\ \\ \implies\sf 2x = 12 \\ \\ \implies\sf x = \cancel\cfrac{12}{2} \\ \\ \implies\sf \: x = 6$

Check :-

By substituting the value of x = 6

L. H. S.

=> 2 × 6 + 8

=> 12 + 8

=> 20

R. H. S.

=> 20

Therefore L. H. S. = R. H. S.
