Question

A number is such that it is as much greater than 84 as it is less than 108. Find it.​

Answer 1

Let the number be x.

Then, the number is greater than 84 by x -84 and it is less than 108 by 108 - x

\begin{lgathered}x - 84 = 108 - x \\ \\ = > x + x = 108 + 84 \\ \\ = > 2x = 192 \\ \\ = > \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{192}{2} \\ \\ = > x = 96 \\ \\ Hence \: the \: number \: is \: 96 .\end{lgathered}

x−84=108−x

=>x+x=108+84

=>2x=192

Answer 2

Let the number be x.

Then,

The number is greater than 84 by x -84 and it is less than 108 by 108 - x

$==> x - 84 = 108 - x$

$==> x + x = 108 + 84$

$==> 2x = 192$

$==> \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{192}{2}$

$==> x = 96$
