Question

Three times a number increased by ten equal to twenty less than six times a number . find the number​

Answer 1

`x=10`

Explanation:

Three times a number increased by ten equal to twenty less than six times a number. Let the number be
`x`.

`3x + 10 = 6x-20`

Add
`-6x` and
`-10` on both sides.

`3x-6x = -20-10`

`-3x=-30`

Cancel the negative signs on both sides.

`3x=30`

Divide
`3` on both sides.

`x=30/3`

`x=10`

Answer 2

the number is 10

Explanation:

3x + 10 = 6x-20

20+10=6x-3x

30=3x

x=10
