8times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number. what is the number?

The variable titled "the number" is A: 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is 8 * (x - 6) = 4 * x

Try the first number as x and rewrite the expression.

8 * (12 - 6) = 4 * 12

Following PEMDAS (the Order of Operations), you need to solve the problem inside the parenthesis.

12 - 6 = 6

Rewrite the problem.

8 * 6 = 4 * 12

8 times 6 is 48.

4 times 12 is 48.

The variable in the expression 8 * (x - 6) = 4 * x is 12.

the two may have that, even a breakdown is probably offered

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
