Question

Find a number,such that one forth of the numberis 3 more than 7

Answer 1

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be 'n'

it is given that 1/4 of n equals 3 more than 7

i,e. 1/4*n = 3+7

so,

1/4*n = 10

n = 10*4/1 (reciprocal of 1/4 is 4/1)

n = 40/1 = 40

therefore the number is 40
