When the quotient of a certain number and 6 is decreased by 14, the result is 4 find the number.
Y’all suck bro. I just visited this page to see al the wimpy losers who couldn’t finish their math lmao 😂
To find the number, let's break down the problem step by step:
1. Let's assume the certain number is represented by "x".
2. The quotient of "x" and 6 can be written as x/6.
3. The problem states that when this quotient is decreased by 14, the result is 4. So, we can write this information as (x/6) - 14 = 4.
Now, we can solve the equation to find the value of "x":
1. Add 14 to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable:
(x/6) - 14 + 14 = 4 + 14
(x/6) = 18
2. Multiply both sides of the equation by 6 to get rid of the fraction:
6 * (x/6) = 18 * 6
x = 108
Therefore, the number is 108.
N/6 -14=4
N=6*18
check that.
thanks. i wasn't sure whether to divide n or divide the four, that's all.
