Equivalent expressions are expressions that have the same values.
The expression is and the number is 12
Represent the number with x.
So, the sum of a number (x) and 7 would be represented as: x + 7
Three times the sum would be represented as: 3(x + 7)
This expression is equivalent to 57.
So, we have:
Divide both sides of the equation by 57
Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation
Hence, the number is 12
