Answer:

n = 15/8 or 1.875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that n represents the number:

8n - 9 = 6

8n = 15

n = 15/8

Answer:

x = 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

nine (9) less than (minus) a product of (multiply) eight (8) and a number (represented by x) is equal to (=) six (6)

so our equation to solve is:

9 - 8x = 6

Rearange Terms

Subtract 9

-8x + 9 = 6

      - 9    - 9

-8x = -3

x = 3/8
