Question

x and y are two different numbers. What can be added to 6x to get 9y

Answer 1

Answer:

9y-6x

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering that 6x is a smaller number than 9y, we can get their difference by simply subtracting them.

For example;

5 and 3.

2 (5-3) has to be added to 3 to get 5.

Answer 2

We need to add (9y - 6x) to 6x to get the result as 9y.

Given:

x and y are two different numbers.

To Find:

What can be added to 6x to get 9y.

Solution:

Here two numbers x and y are given.

Let, k is the number that is needed to be added to 6x to get 9y.

Thus,

The equation becomes,

6x + k = 9y

or, 9y - 6x = k

For example, if x and y are 6 and 2 respectively,

Then, 6x = 36

and 9y = 18

Thus,

36 + k = 18

or, k = -18

Thus this equation will give the exact value and we will get the required answer.

So, if we add (9y - 6x) to 6x we will get the result as 9y.
