Answer:

The number is 1 [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We just need to express this statement mathematically and the solve;

Let the number be x

6 + 8x =21

Subtract 6 from both-side of the equation

6-6 + 8x = 21 - 6

8x = 15

Divide both-side of the equation by 8

8x/8 = 15/8

(On the left-hand side of the equation, 8 on the numerator will cancel-out 8 on the denominator leaving us with just x while on the right-hand side 15 will be divided by 8)

x = 15 / 8

x = 1 [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

The number is 1 [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]
