Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number be x.

Now, As per the question,

4/7 * 3/4 * x +24 = x

3x/7 + 24 = x

3x + 168 = 7x

4x = 168

x = 42.

So, Required no. is 42.

Answer 2

Given:

1/4 subtracted from half of a number is 1/4 part of a number.

To find:

What is the number.

• Solution:

Let the number be x

• So as per the condition of the question the equation of the condition is given by:

$\sf\frac{x}{2} -\frac{1}{4} = \frac{x}{4}$

$\sf\frac{x}{2} - \frac{x}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$

$\sf\frac{2x-x}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$

$\sf\frac{x}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$

By solving the equation we get the value of x= 1
