Question

A fourth of sixteen added to twice of one. Is what number?

Answer 1

Answer:

suppose the number is x.

Now, framing LHS : (x/3) + 16 ________ (1)

Framing RHS : 3x _______ (2)

Therefore, ATP,

(x/3) + 16 = 3x

=> x + 48 = 9x ________ (Multiplying both sides by 3)

=> 9x - x = 48

=> 8x = 48

=> x = 6 _______ (Dividing both sides by 8)

Therefore, the required no. is 6 _______ (Ans: )

Cross-check : LHS -> (6/3) + 16 = 18

RHS -> 3*6 = 18

Therefore, LHS = RHS _______ (Hence prove

Answer 2

Answer:

ATQ.

x/3 +16 = 3x

( x+ 48)/3 = 3x

x + 48 = 9x

9x - x = 48

8x = 48

so, x = 6

thus the answer is x = 6.
