Question

I think of number multiply by 3 add 4 the answer is the same add 10 to the number

Answer 1

The number is three.

Explanation:

Writing this word problem as an equation is: 3x + 4 = x + 10

Moving all the terms with variables to one side and constants to another changes the equation to 3x - x = 10 - 4.

Combining like terms makes it 2x = 6

Divide both sides by 2 to get x = 3.
