Question

A number decreased by 33 is the same as 11 minus 3 times the number

Answer 1

The Answer is: The number is 11.

Explanation:

Let n = number

The number minus 33 is equal to 11 minus 3 times the number:

n - 33 = 11 - 3n

4n = 11 + 33

4n = 44

n = 11, the value of the number.

Proof:

11 - 33 = 11 - 3(11)

-22 = 11 - 33

-22 = -22
