Answer:

1/4 * 1/2 * n = 1/4

Here n is the required number

1/4 * 1/2 * n = 1/4

1/8 * n = 1/4

n = 1/4 ÷ 1/8

Answer 2

Given:

1/4 subtracted from half of a number is 1/4 part of a number.

To find:

What is the number.

Solution:

Let the number be x

so as per the condition of the question the equation of the condition is given by:

• $\frac{x}{2} -\frac{1}{4} = \frac{x}{4}$
• $\frac{x}{2} - \frac{x}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$
• $\frac{2x-x}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$
• $\frac{x}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$
• x = 1

By solving the equation we get the value of x as 1

so,

The required number is 1
