Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the "number."
"twice the difference of a number and 16" can be written as:
2(x-16)
"is the same as three times a number less than 18" can be written as:
= 3(x<18)
I wonder if this was meant to say "is the same as three times a number less 18," instead of "less than 18." If so, we would have:
=3(x-18)
1. Using the sentence as written: 2(x-16) = 3(x<18)
2. Using the sentence as amended: 2(x-16) = =3(x-18)
Going with this interpretation:
2(x-16) = 3(x-18)
2x - 32 = 3x - 54
x = 22
