Question

Six times a number is greater than 20 more than that number. What are the possible values of that number?

Answer 1

It would be easier to translate this into mathematical terms first.
Let n = the unknown number

6n > n + 20

Subtracting both sides by n to simplify:
6n - n > n + 20 - n
5n > 20

Dividing both sides by 5:
5n/5 > 20/5
n > 4

Among the choices, the correct one is the second choice.
