6 times a number multiplied by 3 all divided by 4

Take this algebraic expression in parts:
  • The phrase a number means an arbitrary variable, let's call it x
  • 6 times a number: 6x
  • Multiplied by 3: 3(6x) = 18x
  • All divided by 4: 18x/4
We can simplify this:
We type 18/4 into our search engine, simplify, and we get 9/2. So our answer is:
9x/2
