If four times a certain number increased by 6 is equal to 94, what is the number?

If x represents the number, then which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?

4x + 6 = 94
or
4(x + 6) = 94
Answered by Mithra
Let the # = x

Four time the # = 4(x)

The # increased by 6

4x + 6 = 94

That depends upon how the statement is interpreted.

I vote for the first one since x is a whole number.

Although the statement is somewhat ambiguous, I would favor the first equation.
