Question

I thought of a number, divided it by 11 and added seven. I got 19. What was my number?

Answer 1

Answer: 132

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you write your equation. Let your number be X.

Here is your equation.

(x ÷ 11) + 7 =19

Now, you do the opposite. What is the opposite of addition? Subtraction. So, you do 19 - 7=12

But we still have x ÷ 11 and now we would do 12 x 11, which is 132 and that should be the answer. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The answer is 209

Start at 19 and times 11 to 19. You need to do the opposite. If there were more numbers in the equation then you would do the same; work your way up and do the opposite of what it says
