Question Find the number xx such that 3.3+6x=53.13.3 + 6x = 53.1.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. Let the unknown number be represented by the variable xx.
2. The equation representing the problem is 3.3+6x=53.13.3 + 6x = 53.1.

STEP 2

We need to isolate the variable xx to find its value. To do this, we will first subtract 3.3 from both sides of the equation to move the constant term to the right side.
6x=53.13.36x = 53.1 - 3.3

STEP 3

Perform the subtraction on the right side of the equation.
6x=49.86x = 49.8

STEP 4

Now, we will divide both sides of the equation by 6 to solve for xx.
x=49.86x = \frac{49.8}{6}

STEP 5

Perform the division to find the value of xx.
x=8.3x = 8.3
The number is 8.38.3.
