Twice a number n increased by 11 is the same as six times the number decreased by 9. What is the value of n?

Correct answer: C. 5

  • A. 3
  • B. 12
  • C. 5
  • D. 18

Explanation

To solve this problem, we first translate the given information into an algebraic equation: 2n + 11 = 6n - 9. By solving for n, we find that n = 5. Option A and Option B do not yield the correct result when substituted into the equation. Option D also fails the test. Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.
