Question

Eight times pf a number reduced by 10 is equal to the sum of six times the number and 4 find the number

Answer 1

The number be x
Eight times of a number reduced by 10 = 8x-10
The sum of six times of a number and 4 = 6x+4
By the problem
8x+6x=10-4
10+4=8x-6x
14=2x
X= 14/2
X=7
Therefore the number is 7

Answer 2

Hello,

we indicate with the number be n.

so we have:

8n - 10 = 6n + 4;
8n - 6n= 4 + 10
2n = 14
n=14/2=7
n = 7

Therefore the number is 7

bye :-)
