      Question

      Subtracting 30 from 14 times a number gives a result

      which is 50 more than 9 times the number. What is the number?
      A 66 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 42 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 28 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the number be β€˜x’
      Then, according to the question,
      (14x – 30) = 9x + 50
      Or, 14x – 9x = 50 + 30
      Or, 5x = 80
      So, x = (80/5) = 16
