Question

The difference between 6 times a number and 23/7 is ‐ 9/7 . find the
number.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

7+6n=22

6n=22-76n=15

the goal of here is to find out the value of n.

6n/6=15/6

Answer 2

${\boxed{\underline{\tt{\orange{Required \: Answer:-}}}}}$

$\dag \: \sf{given} \: : - \:$

difference between 6 times a number and

23/7 is -9/7.

$\dag \: \sf{to \: find} \: : -$

the number

$\dag \: \: \sf{solution} \: : -$

Let the number be ▪a▪

So, According to question: -

● 6 times a number = 6a

● The difference between 6 times a number and

23/7 is -9/7.

$□ \sf{\: \: 6a - \frac{23}{7} = - \frac{9}{7} }$

$□ \: \: \sf{6a = \frac{ - 9}{7} + \frac{23}{7} }$

$□ \: \: \sf{6a = \frac{ - 9 + 23}{7} }$

$□ \: \: \sf{6 a = \frac{ 14}{ 7} }$

$□ \: \: \sf{6 a = \frac{ \cancel{14}}{ \cancel{7}} }$

$□ \: \: \sf{6 a = 2 }$

$□ \: \: \sf{a = \frac{2}{6} }$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {\boxed {\underline {\huge {\blue{a= \frac{1}{3} }}}}}$

So, The Number is 1/3.

---------------TO VERIFY:-
