If 22is added to a number and the sum is divided by 2, the result is 6 times the number . Find the number

Answer 1

AnSwer:

Let the number be x.

★ According to the question,

$: \implies \sf \: \: \dfrac{22 + x}{2} = 6x \\ \\ : \implies \sf \: \:22 + x = 2(6x) \\ \\ : \implies \sf \: \:22 + x = 12x \\ \\ : \implies \sf \: \:22 = 12x - x \\ \\ : \implies \sf \: \:22 = 11x \\ \\ : \implies \sf \: \:x = \dfrac{22}{11} \\ \\ : \implies \sf { \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{ \purple{\: \:x = 2 \: }}}}} \: \: \bigstar$

Therefore, the number is 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

x=263.

Step-by-step explanation:

(22+x)/2=6x

(22+x)=2*6*x

(22+x)/x=12

22/x+x/x=12

x+1=12*22

x+1=264

x=264-1

x=263.
