Answer 1

To start off answering this, you need to look at the first sentence. A number divided by 3 is 4 more than -11. That means that you can start off by using what you are given and bring it down to A number divided by 3 is -7. So -7*3=-21. I don't understand the rest of your question, but this is what I have come up with based on what I have been given.
