For this case we must raise the equation according to the given statement.

Let the variable "x" be the unknown number.

So, three times the number is:
3x

If to that term is added "6" we have:


3x+6

The sum of both terms is "12", then:


3x+6 = 12

Thus, the equation is:
3x+6 = 12

Answer:


3x+6 = 12
