\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}♨

Consider the number as x

let's solve ~


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:6(x + 20) = 26


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:6x + 120 = 26


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:6x = - 120 + 26


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:6x = -94


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x = - 94 / 6


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x = ( - 47)/(3)

Answer:


(x + 20) 6 = 26


6x + 120 = 26


6x = 26 - 120


6x = - 94


\displaystyle \: x = ( - 94)/(6)


\displaystyle{x = ( - 47)/(3) }
