Answer :

equation = 4x + 11 = 35

x = 6

Let the number be x

11 more than 4 times a number can be written mathematically

more than means addition

Since, the number is x

Therefore, 4 * x + 11 = 35

4x + 11 = 35

The equation is 4x + 11 = 35

To find x, collect the like terms

4x = 35 - 11

4x = 24

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 24/4

x = 6

Therefore, the number is 6
