<h3>20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number. Then the number is 13</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given statement is:</u></em>
20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number
We can translate the sentence into algebraic expression
Let "a" be the unknown number
Then,
20 subtracted from three times "a" is 6 more than "a"
Which means,
3a - 20 = 6 + a
3a - a = 6 + 20
2a = 26
Divide both sides by 2
a = 13
Thus the number is 13

Answer: The man and the turkey cross the river, (the wolf and corn are safe together), he leaves the turkey on the other side and goes back across.
The man then takes the wolf across the river, and since he can't leave the wolf and turkey together, he brings the turkey back.
Again, since the turkey and corn can't be left together, he leaves the turkey and he takes the corn across and leaves it with the wolf.
He then returns to pick up the turkey and heads across the river one last time.
