I believe the answer would be 136.

-45+x=-11.

x=34

34*4=136

Hope this is correct, that is some tricky wording.

Grayson · Answer 2

1/4n + (-45) = - 11

1/4n + (-45) + 45=-11+45

1/4n=34

1/4n*4=34*4

n=136

The number is 136

Check:

1/4n + (-45) = - 11

1/4 (136) + (-45) = - 11

34 + (-45) = 11

11=11
