Twice the difference of a number and six is the same as twelve . write into algebraic equation

2(n-6)=12

(I went too far in my explanation; I'm not going to erase it because I think it is important to have an example on solving these)

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice the difference of a number and 6 is the same as 12.

Twice means 2 times

Difference means the result of subtracting something.

is the same as means equal to (=).

So we are given 2(n-6)=12.

You can start by dividing 2 on both sides are distributing 2 to terms in the ( ).

I will do it both ways and you can pick your favorite.

2(n-6)=12

Divide both sides by 2.

 n-6  =6

Add 6 on both sides

 n     =12

OR!

2(n-6)=12

Distribute 2 to both terms in the ( )

2n-12=12

Add 12 on both sides

2n    =24

Divide both sides by 2

n       =12
