Question

How to solve it?
1/4 of number subtracting from 1/3 of numbergiven 12 the new nember is? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE NUMBER =x

let 1/4  of number m=x*1/4=x/4-------------(1)

let 1/3 of number n=x*1/3=x/3-----------(2)

we have to subtract 2/1/4 of x from 1/3 x

or m from n

n-m=12

putting values of m and n from (1) and (2) we get

x/3-x/4=12

Multiplying by 12 we get

12x/3-12x/4=12*12

4x-3x=144

x=144

So the number=144
