Larry thought of a number. He added 1, multiplied the sum by 2, divided the product by 3, and then subtracted 4. He got 6. What number did Larry think of

Larry thought of the number 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be represented by x

Such that when added with 1 becomes x+1

Multiplied by 2 becomes 2(x+1)

divided  by 3 gives 2(x+1)/3

Upon subtraction with 4, we have

2(x+1)/3 -4=6 as the equation

Solving

2(x+1)/3 -4=6

2(x+1)/3=6+4

2(x+1)/3=10

2(x+1)=3x10

2(x+1)=30

2x+2=30

2x=30-2

2x=28

x=28/2

x=14

4 and 5)16.97 or 12√2

6)15.59 or 9√3

7)y = 15.59 or 9√3     x =27

8)17.80

multiply then divide
