Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

⇔ We can set up an equation using the information given to us

16 =1 \frac{2}{10} x+-8

We can that 16 is equal or the same as, one and two tenths times a number which is 'x' added to negative 8

⇔ The minus cancels out the plus

16=1\frac{2}{10} x-8

⇔ Add 8 to both sides to isolate  1\frac{2}{10} x

24 =1 \frac{2}{10} x\\

⇔ Convert  1\frac{2}{10} x  to improper fraction to make solving easier

24 = \frac{12}{10} x

⇔ Multiply both sides by 10 to isolate 12x

240 = 12x

⇔ Divide both sides by 12 to isolate x

20 = x

→ The 'number' is 20
