Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x .
seven times the number = 7x
13 times the number = 13x
/* According to the problem given
7x = 13x - 12
=> 12 = 13x - 7x
=> 12 = 6x
/* Divide both sides by 6 , we get
=> 2 = x
Therefore.,
Verification :
7x = 13x -12
=> 7 × 2 = 13 × 2 - 12
=> 14 = 26 - 12
=> 14 = 14 ( True )
