Question

The product of twice a number and six is the same as the difference of eleven times the number and 1/4 fine the number

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose ,

The  number is x

now,

twice a number = 2 . x = 2x

The product of twice a number and six = 2x . 6 = 12x

  [ "product" means the result of multiplication]

Then,

Eleven times the number = 11 . x = 11x

The difference of eleven times the number and 1/4 = 11x - 1/4

                                                                                       =  (44x-1)/4

Hence,

 12x = (44x-1)/4

=>48x = 44x-1        [multiplied by 4 on both sides]    

=>48x-44x=-1         [subtract 44x on both sides]    

=>4x=-1                   [divide both sides by 4]  

=>x= -1/4
