Question

Translate an equation, then solve.
Thirteen less than six times a number is equal to 11 more than four times a number. What is the number?

Answer 1

6n - 13 = 4n + 11

Answer 2

Solving that, n = 12.

Answer 3

@Richard_Feynman Can you explain how you have reached that n=12?

Answer 4

Subtract 4n from both sides and then add 13 to both sides to get 2n = 24. Then divide by 2 to get n = 12.

Answer 5

Okay. I just wanted to clarify something.
