If you double a number and then add 36, you get four elevenths

of the original number. What is the original number? Please help

-22

Step-by-step explanation:

let them number be a

2a+36=4/11 of a

2a+36=4/11 x a

2a+36=4a/11

Cross multiplying we get

11(2a+36)=4a

Open brackets

22a+396=4a

Collect like terms

22a-4a=-396

18a=-396

Divide both sides by 18

18a/18=-396/18

a=-22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Double a number: 2x

Then add 36 to it: 2x +36

Four elevenths of the number:(4/11)x

hi,

6x times 4 is 24x and 5 times 4 is 20, so the answer is 24x+20.

hope this and for a little humor i am groot.
