Let's solve the problem step by step:
Let "x" be the unknown number.
"If you divide my number by 3" translates to "x/3."
"Add -3" translates to "+ (-3)" or "- 3."
"You will get 4" can be represented by the equation "x/3 - 3 = 4."
To find the value of "x," we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Let's start by adding 3 to both sides:
x/3 - 3 + 3 = 4 + 3
x/3 = 7
Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the denominator:
3 * (x/3) = 3 * 7
x = 21
Therefore, the unknown number is 21.
