The product of a number and 3 is the same as the sum of that number and six.

Answer 1

The product of a number and 3:

Let's call this number x, so the product of this number and 3 would be 3x.

This product is equal to the sum of the number and six => x+6

Therefore:

3x = x+6

After solving for x, you will find that it is equal to 3.
