Question

if I take three-forth of a number and add 3 to it, I get 21​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the no. be x.

3/4 × x + 3 = 21

x = 27

Answer 2

Answer:

Required number = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x .

$three-fourth \:of \:the \\number =\frac{3x}{4}$

/* According to the problem given,

$\frac{3x}{4}+3=21$

$\implies \frac{3x}{4}=21-3$

$\implies \frac{3x}{4}=18$

$\implies x = 18 \times \frac{4}{3}$

$\implies x = 6\times 4=24$

Therefore,

Required number = 24
