Let's assume the number Sushil was thinking was 'x'

Now lets understand each part,

First, Sushil divides the number by 7, writing this in numbers will give,


(x)/(7)

Sushil then adds 7 to digit, this will give


(x)/(7)+7

Sushil tells that the answer for the following equation is 12, so


(x)/(7) + 7 = 12

Therefore the equation Sushil made is
(x)/(7) + 7 = 12

Happy to help :)

Answer:

The number is 35.

35 divided by 7 is 5, and 5 plus 7 is 12.
