Question

A number is such that the ratio of 82 less than the number and the difference of 112and the number is 1:find the number.

Answer 1

Let the number be x.

A/Q -> x-82:112-x = 1

=> x- 82/112-x = 1

=> x - 82 = 112- x

=> x + x = 112 + 82

=> 2x = 194

=> x = 194/2

= 97

The value of number is 97.

Rechecking:-

x-82/ 112-x = 1

=> 97- 82/112 - 97 = 1

=> 15/15 = 1

So, the value of number is 97.
