Answer:
[tex]x = 60[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Convert into an equation
Nine less than one forth of a number is 6
[tex]1/4x - 9 = 6[/tex]
Step 2: Add 9 to both sides
[tex]1/4x - 9 = 6[/tex]
[tex]1/4x - 9 + 9= 6+ 9[/tex]
[tex]1/4x = 15[/tex]
Step 3: Multiply both sides by 4
[tex]1/4x * 4 = 15 * 4[/tex]
[tex]x = 60[/tex]
Answer: [tex]x = 60[/tex]
