Answer 2

To find : missing number .

Given : $\frac{1}{3}$ of $x$ is $24$  

Solution :  

• Let , missing number be $x$ .
• To solve the above equation we will follow BODMAS rule.
• It is the rule used to remember the order of operations to be followed while solving expressions in mathematics.
• where,

        $\begin{array}{l} \\B= brackets \\\mathrm{O}=\text { order of powers or rules } \\\mathrm{D}=\text { Division } \\\mathrm{M}=\text { multiplication } \\\mathrm{A}=\text { addition } \\\mathrm{S}=\text { subtraction }\end{array}$

        $\frac{1}{3}\times x = 24 \\x = 24\times 3 \\x = 72$

Hence , value of expression is $72$ .
