Fifteen more than four times a number is equal to the difference between 191 and four times the number find the number

1 answer

Let's represent the number as x.
According to the given information, we can form the following equation:

4x + 15 = 191 - 4x

Now, let's solve for x:
Adding 4x to both sides of the equation:
4x + 4x + 15 = 191 - 4x + 4x
8x + 15 = 191

Subtracting 15 from both sides of the equation:
8x + 15 -15 = 191 - 15
8x = 176

Dividing both sides of the equation by 8:
(8x)/8 = 176/8
x = 22

Therefore, the number is 22.
