Question

A number is such that it is as much greater
3
than 815 as it is less than 1173. Find
of the
7.
number.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number be x

According to the question,

The number − 815 = 1173 − the number

⇒ x − 815 = 1173 − x

⇒ x + x = 1173 + 815

⇒ 2x = 1988

∴x = 1988/2 = 994

Thus, the required number is 994
