The answer is 54 hope this helps
Answer:
(A) 12
Step-by-step explanation:
First, lets define the number as x.
"8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number" is translated into "8(x - 6) = 4x"
8(x - 6) = 4x
8x - 48 = 4x
4x = 48
x = 12
To find the solution to this problem, you would do the opposite of division which is multiplication.
Use the terms you have to plug into your new equation;
0.6 x 1.4 = .84
To check your work you would plug in .84 where the '?' is;
.84/.6= 1.4
There you have the original equation you began with.
Therefore, .84 would be your final answer.
