Let X = the number we trying to find, to halve a number we divide by 2 and then we add 9 the result = 63. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x/2 + 9 = 63
\n" ); document.write( "x/2 = 63-9
\n" ); document.write( "x/2 = 54 multiply both sides by 2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = 108\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "original number is equal to 108 \n" ); document.write( "
