Step-by-step explanation:

88

Answer 2

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the given number be x

we have:

22 added to the number = 22 + x

and the result divided by 2 = 22 + x / 2

The result is 6 times the number = 22 + x / 2 = 6 x

Therefor the equation is 6 x = 22 + x / 2

now we will solve this equation.

6 x * 2 = 22 + x

12 x  = 22 + x

12 x - x = 22

11 x = 22

x = 22/11

x = 2

verification:

6 * 2 = 22 + 2 / 2

12 = 24 / 2

12 = 12

Therefore LHS = RHS

hence 2 is the correct ans

Please mark as the brainliest answer as these is step by step answer.

hope this helps!!!
