Let's represent the number as "x".
The equation can be written as: (8 + x)/3 = 6
To solve for x, we can multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction:
8 + x = 18
Next, subtract 8 from both sides:
x = 18 - 8
Simplifying further, we have:
x = 10
Therefore, the number is 10.
The sum of 8 and a number divided by 3 equals 6. Find the number.(1 point)
