Question

Twice a number added to a number exceeds the number by 12

Answer 1

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m be the number

Then 2m+m=m+12

2m=12

m=6

Answer 2

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

    2x=x/2 +12

    2x-12=x/2

   2 (x-6)=x/2

 x-6= x/4

  x-x/4=6

    3x/4=6

      x=8
