Question

The product of nine and a number is added to six the result is 24 what is the number

Answer 1

Hello!

We can make an equation based on what we know

The product of 9 and a number is

9 * x

Added to six

9 * x + 6

Gives the result of 24

9 * x + 6 = 24

Now you solve it algebraically

Subtract 6 from both sides

9 * x = 18

Divide both sides by 9

x = 2

The answer is 2

Hope this helps!
