There is a number, such that 3 times the number minus 6 equals to 45. Find the number.

First, you do the opposite of this:
You take 45 + 6 rather than subtracting 6 from it.
Then, you divide 3 by the sum of 45 an 6.
Your sum is 51 there, and then you divide the 51 by the 3 and you get your answer: 17

Hope this Helps!
