8(x - 6) = 4x
Distribute.
8x - 48 = 4x
Subtract 8x from both sides.
8x -8x - 48 =4x -8x
Now you have...
-48 = -4x
Divide -4 by both sides.
-48/-4 = -4x/-4
12 = x
The number is 12.

Answer:  12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

Given statement: 8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.

then, the required equation :

8(x-6)=4x

Divide both sides by 4 , we gte

\dfrac{8(x-6)}{4}=\dfrac{4x}{4}

Simplify

2(x-6)=x

Multiply 2 inside the parenthesis.

2x-12=x

Subtract x and add 12 on both sides , we gte

2x-x-12+12=x-x+12

Simplify

x=12

Hence, the number is <u>12</u>.

WRITE DOWN THE FALUE OF 7
Maru [420]

Answer:

(I need to know where the seven is located/placed.) Please give a clear answer or attach a photo next time so everybody who sees your question will understand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the numbers 700, 70, and 7; the digit "7" has a different value depending on its place within the number.

7 - ones place

70 - tens place

700 - hundreds place

The place value of the 7 determines the value it holds for the number. As the place moves to the left, the value of the number becomes greater by 10 times
