To find : missing number .

Given : The difference between $6$ times, and $8$ times of a number is $14$ .

Solution :

• Let missing number be $x$ .
• According to given data we know that ,difference between $6$ times, and $8$ times of a number is $14$ .  
• We write given condition as , $8x - 6x = 14$
• Further , we solve by transposing constant to RHS and leaving variable $x$ at LHS .
