a number is added to 7 and divided by 12,the result is 4.what is the number?

(7+x)/12 = 4

Good

To find the number, let's break down the information given step by step:

1. A number is added to 7: Let's call this number "x"
So, the expression becomes (x + 7)

2. The resulting sum is divided by 12:
So, the expression becomes (x + 7) / 12

3. The result of the division is 4:
Set up an equation: (x + 7) / 12 = 4

To solve this equation, we will follow these steps:

Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by 12 to eliminate the fraction:
12 * ((x + 7) / 12) = 4 * 12
(x + 7) = 48

Step 2: Subtract 7 from both sides to isolate the variable, x:
x + 7 - 7 = 48 - 7
x = 41

Hence, the number is 41.
