You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
I start with a number when i divide the number by 6 then add 4 and then double it i get 28
Call your unknown number 'x'
x/6
x/6 + 4
2(x/6 + 4)
2(x/6 + 4) = 28
Divide both sides by 2
x/6 + 4 = 14
Subtract 4 from both sides
x/6 = 10
Multiply both sides by 6
x = 60
Your number is 60.
Hope this helps:-)
