Answer:
See below:
Step-by-step explanation:
So first, Paul has a number that he got before he multiplied it, we can call that [tex]p[/tex], and for his answer after doubling it. we'll call it [tex]n[/tex].
So with this information, we know that [tex]n=13.1[/tex] so we can use that to make an equation.
[tex]p*2=n\\p*2=13.1[/tex]
We can solve it by first dividing on both sides and getting our answer.
[tex]p=\frac{13.1}{2} \\p=6.55[/tex]
Cheers! We get our final answer of 6.55.
