When 20 is added to a certain number and the result multiplied by 10 the answer is 60 ''Help me solve this''​

This is a Word Problem.

Just apply a bit of Intuition and Follow the question as it comes.

Let the number be y

20+y

10(20+y) = 60

divide both sides by 10

20+y = 6

y=6-20

y=-14

To verify this

10(20-14)

10(6)

=60.

So -14 is the correct answer

the answer is 288..

hope this
