Answer: Required variable expression.
x-13=11

The value of x is 24.

Explanation:

Let x be the number.

Given statement: "thirteen less than the total of a number and eleven."

Expression for "thirteen less than the total of a number" =
x-13

Now , the complete expression will be :
x-13=11

To simplify, we add 13 on both the sides , we get


x-13+13=11+13\\\\\Rightarrow\ x= 24

Hence, the value of x is 24.
