Question

If 33 is added to half of a number,the result is double the number. Find the number

Answer 1

Let's assume the number as x

So, half of the number = x / 2

According to Question,

x / 2 + 33 = 2x

=> (x + 66) / 2 = 2x

=> x + 66 = 2(2x) = 4x

=> 66 = 4x - x

=> 66 = 3x

=> 66 / 3 = x

=> 22 = x

Hence, the required number is 22

Answer 2

let the number be 'x'

33+(x/2)=2x

33=2x-(x/2)

33=3x/2

x=33.2/3

x=22
