Answer:

The number is 92

Explanation:

A number tripled and tripled again is 828:


3(3x)=828\\\\(3\cdot3)x=828\\\\9x=828\qquad\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\\x=92\\\\\text{The number is 92}

Answer:

The number is 92

Explanation:

Let x equal the number

It is tripled

3x

Then it is tripled again

3(3x)

That equals 828

3(3x) = 828

9x =828

Divide each side by 9

9x/9 =828/9

x =92
