Question

Translate the statement into an equation and then find the number.
I think of a number, divide it by 4 and add 11. The result is 17.

Answer 1

Answer:

let the number be x,

which is diveded by 14

x/14 , then add 11

x/14 + 11 = 17

x/14 =17-11

x/14 = 6

x=14 * 6

x=84.

so the equation is x/14+11=17 and the number is 84.

mark me as brainlist.

Answer 2

Question

• I think of a number, divide it by 4 and add 11. The result is 17.

Solution

Let the number we are thinking be x.

When we will divide it by 4 it becomes $\rm\dfrac{x}{4}.$

When 11 is added to the number we are thinking and result is 17 number becomes $\rm\dfrac{x}{4}+11=17.$

Translation

Statement = I think of a number, divide it by 4 and add 11. The result is 17.

Equation = $\rm\dfrac{x}{4}+11=17.$

Let us solve this equation:-

$\rm{\dfrac{x}{4} + 11 = 17} \\ \\ \\ \\ \implies \rm{x +44 =68} \\ \\ \\ \\ \implies \rm{x=68 - 44} \\ \\ \\ \\ \implies \rm{x = 24.}$

Therefore,

• Number = x = 24.
