Let's solve this step-by-step through logical reasoning and simple arithmetic operations:
1. Choose a number: Let's denote this number as [tex]\( x \)[/tex].
2. Multiply the number by 5:
[tex]\[
5x
\][/tex]
3. Add 6 to the result:
[tex]\[
5x + 6
\][/tex]
4. Subtract this result:
Subtracting [tex]\( 5x + 6 \)[/tex] from itself:
[tex]\[
(5x + 6) - (5x + 6) = 0
\][/tex]
Thus, regardless of the initial number [tex]\( x \)[/tex], the final result after performing these operations will always be [tex]\( 0 \)[/tex].
