Find a number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The number is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite ?

Solution :

Let the number be 'x'.

It's opposite is '-x'.

A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite

i.e. $x - 12 = 3(-x)$

Solving the equation,

$x-12=-3x$

$x+3x=12$

$4x=12$

$x=\frac{12}{4}$

$x=3$

Therefore, the number is 3.
