1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be X

condition

12 more than seven times the number

it can be represented numerically by using process given belwo

seven times the number will be 7 * X = 7X

12 more than 7X will be equal to 7X + 12

______________________________

This number (7X + 12) is equal to number plus 19

number plus 18 will be X + 18

therefore according to the question

7X + 12  = X + 18

=> 7X - X = 18 - 12

=> 6X = 6

=> X = 6/6 = 1 (Answer)

The number is 1.
