The correct Answer is:
To solve the riddle, we need to find a number that, when taken out of 22, gives us the same number back. Let's break this down step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the Riddle The riddle states: "You will get me back if you take me out of twenty-two." This means that if we subtract a certain number from 22, we should end up with that same number. ### Step 2: Set Up the Equation Let's denote the unknown number as \( x \). According to the riddle, we can set up the equation: \[ 22 - x = x \] ### Step 3: Rearrange the Equation To solve for \( x \), we can rearrange the equation: \[ 22 = x + x \] \[ 22 = 2x \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( x \) Now, we can solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides by 2: \[ x = \frac{22}{2} \] \[ x = 11 \] ### Conclusion The number we are looking for is \( 11 \).
