If you multiply me by 7, subtract 2 and then divide by 6, you get 9. What number am I ?

The answer would be 8, because when you multiply 7 times 8 you get 56 then you subtract 2 and get 54 you then divide it by 6 and get 9.... I got this by doing the contrary of each number for example it said that dividing it by 6 would give you 9 so I multiplied 9 times 6 and got 64, then it said to subtract 2 so I added it instead and got 56, and then it said multiply by 7 so I divided by 7 and got 8. when I did the procedure again but with the right order I got 9 at the end...

This means that you would be the number 8

hope this helps
