I THINK OF ANUMBER IF IMULTIPLY IT BY 6 THE ANSWER WILL BE 80. what IS the number
Let x=the number that you thought of
If we multiply it by 6, then we have 6x
Now we are told that:
6x=80 divide both sides by 6
x=13.3333333333333333333333333333333---- the number

6*13.333333333333333333333333333333333333---=80
80~~~~~~80
