Question

The sum of, half of a number and double the number is 20. Find the number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the word problem as an equation.

The sum of (we will be adding.), half of a number (we can use x, this will be written as x/2.) and double the number (this will be written as 2x) is 20.

To find the number, solve the equation.

x/2 + 2x = 20

Multiply both sides by 2.

x + 4x = 40

Combine terms.

5x = 40

Divide both sides.

x = 8.
