Question

If 3/4 of a number is 12 then find the number

Answer 1

The number is 16.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's solve the given problem:

Let's say "x" is the required number.

So,

3/4th of the number x = $\frac{3}{4} x$

We are given that 3/4 of a number is 12, so we can form an equation as,

$\frac{3}{4} x = 12$

$\implies x = 12 \times \frac{4}{3}$

$\implies x = 4\times 4$

$\implies \bold{x = 16}$

Thus, the number is 16.

Answer 2

Answer:

The required number is $16$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

In this make an equation first as per given in the question and then solve it to get the number.

Given: $\frac{3}{4}$ of a number is $12$.

To find: We have to find the number.

Solution:

Suppose that number is $x$.

Now, Make The equation as described in the question,

$\frac{3}{4} *x=12$

Multiply $x$ with $3$ and we got,

$\frac{3x}{4}=12$

$3x=12*4\\3x=48\\x=\frac{48}{3} \\x=16$

The required number is $16$.
