I think of a number, multiply it by three and add four . I get 22

Using the statement above form an equation . Use the letter ‘x’ for the unknown number

well we know that he got 22 so we can say that X x 3 +4=22 so if you take the four you then have X x 3=18 then then you divided by three so then you get X=6

x • 3 + 4 = 22

that would be the equation, and x would represent the number :)
