Twelve more than half of a number is equal to the number

1 answer:

5 0

Let's consider that number to be 'x'..
So, twice the number (2x) is 12 greater than than the half of the number.
So the equation will be like,
2x=12+x/2
Solving this further,
2x=(24+x)/2
=> 4x=24+x
=>4x-x=24
=>3x=24
=>x=8..
So the number is "8".

Yes. Parenthesis first, then if any exponents, then multiplication or division, then addition and subtraction. PEMDAS.
