  • let's say the number is X and the result is Y
  • X-6=Y
  • y/4+10=30
  • y=(30-10)x4=80
  • so X=80+6=86

Answer: The number is 86.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:

"Six subtracted from a number ", a number means the variable (x), and six subtracted from a number is "x -6".

"The result is divided by 4", so (x-6) /4.

This result is added to then, so: 10+ (x-6) /4.

And finally, to give 30 means that all the expression equals to 30.

10+ (x-6) /4 = 30

Solving:

(X-6) /4 = 30 -10

(X-6) /4 = 20

X-6 = 20x4

X-6 = 80

x =80+6

x= 86

The number is 86.
