Express the following as an equation: "A number plus three times the number equals 44."
Let the number be x.
The equation is: x + 3x = 44
Let's denote the number as "x".
According to the given information, "A number plus three times the number equals 44." can be expressed as the equation:
x + 3x = 44
To express the given statement as an equation, let's first assign a variable to the unknown number. Let's say the unknown number is 'x'.
According to the given statement, "A number plus three times the number equals 44," we can write it as:
x + 3x = 44
Simplifying the equation, we combine the like terms on the left side of the equation:
4x = 44
So, the equation that represents the given statement is 4x = 44.
