Question

Some number minus 11 is equal to the product of the number and 18.

Answer 1

n - 11 = 18n

Explanation:

n−11=18n

Step 1: Subtract 18n from both sides.

n−11−18n=18n−18n

−17n−11=0

Step 2: Add 11 to both sides.

−17n−11+11=0+11

−17n=11

Step 3: Divide both sides by -17.

−17n−17=11−17

n=−1117

Answer:

n = −11/17
