Ok well since it says the product of a number and 6 is 44 more than twice the number. and from this they got 6x=44+2x because it SAYS THE PRODUCT OF A NUMBER U DON'T KKNOW WHAT THE NUMBER IS SO U USE A VARIABLE WHICH IS 6X THEY GOT = 44 FROM THE PRODUCT AND 2X FROM MORE THAN TWICE THE NUMBER AND TWICE IS 2 AND U DON'T KNOW WHAT THE NUMBER IS SO ONCE AGAIN USE A VARIABLE
the product of a number and 6.......6*x or just 6x " is " means equals 44 more then twice the number......44 more means u r gonna add 44.......twice the number.....means multiply the number (x) by 2......giving u 2x + 44...or 44 + 2x
so ur equation is : 6x = 44 + 2x.....subtract 2x from both sides 6x - 2x = 44 4x = 44....divide both sides by 4 x = 44/4 x = 11....so ur number is 11
