Question

Ten times a number increased by eighty four equals 194. what is the number

Answer 1

The number is 11

Explanation:

Represent the number by n.

Then: 10n + 84 = 194.

Subtracting 84 from both sides, we get: 10n = 110, and so:

n = 110/10 = 11

Answer 2

Answer: x = 11

Explanation:

10x+84=194

10x = "10 times a number"

+84 = "increased by eighty four"

=194 = "equals 194"

10x+84=194

Subtract 84

10x = 110

Divide by 10

x = 11
