    Write it as an equation:

    X - 10 = 6x + 3

    Now solve for x:

    Subtract 3 from both sides:

    x-13 = 6x

    Subtract 1 x from both sides:

    -13 = 5x

    Divide both sides by 5:

    x = - 13/5

    x = - 2.6.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the number be x, then:

    x - 10 = 6x + 3

    x - 6x = 3 + 10

    -5x = 13

    x = - 13/5

    = - 2.6.
