Question

I am thinking of a Number. I add 62 to the number and divide the total by 7. The result is 4 less than the number I thought of. What was the number?

Answer 1

Answer:

22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

(X +62)/7 = x-4

X+62 = 7x - 28

7x+x = 62+28

8x = 90

X = 90/8

X = 45/2 or 22.5

Answer 2

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

x+62/7=x-4

x+62=7(x-4)

x+62=7x-28

6x=90

X=15
