Zaria wants you to solve this puzzle: “I am thinking of a number. If you divide my number by 2 and subtract 4, you will get 2. What is my number?

Sagot :

Your answer should be 12 because you would take 2 ( because that is the ending number) and add 4. Then multiply by 2 and it is 12.
    step 1)  2+4=6
    step 2) 6 x 2=12
    step 3) 12=12 you're answer

Let

x--------> the number

we know that

[tex]\frac{x}{2} -4=2[/tex]

solve for x

Adds [tex]4[/tex] both sides

[tex]\frac{x}{2} -4+4=2+4[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{2}=6[/tex]

Multiply by [tex]2[/tex] both sides

[tex]2*\frac{x}{2}=2*6[/tex]

[tex]x=12[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

the number is [tex]12[/tex]
