Answer 2

$\sf\underline\bold{★Solution}$

•Let us take the unknown number to be y;one fourth of y is $\dfrac{y}{4}$ .

This number$\binom{y}{4}$ is more than 7 by 3 .

Hence we get the equation for$\sf{y}$ as $\dfrac{y}{4}$ -7 =3 .

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀• To solve this equation,first transpose 7 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀to RHS We get,

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$\dfrac{y}{4}$ × 4 =10×4

y= 40 (The required number)

✔︎Let us check the equation formed. Putting the value of y in the equation,

LHS = $\dfrac{40}{4}$-7 =10 -7=3 = RHS(as required).
