Question

If the product of any two rational numbers is 3and one of them is 1/4,then find the other number

Answer 1

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

given;

product of two numbers is 3

one of them is 1/4

so;

let the another number be X:

1/4. X= 3

x/4= 3

X= 3*4

X= 12..

verify

two rational numbers that is 1/4 and 12 are multiplied 1/4*12 = 3...

therefore other number is 12

Answer 2

✧ Solution ↓

________________________________

↪ Product of two numbers = 3

↪ One number = $\dfrac{1}{4}$

↪ Other number = ?

________________________________

➠ Let the other number be x, then

⇒ $\dfrac{1}{4}$ × x = 3

⇒ x = $\dfrac{3}{1} \div \dfrac{1}{4}$

⇒ x = $\dfrac{3}{1} \times \dfrac{4}{1}$

⇒ x = 12 or $\dfrac{12}{1}$

➥ Therefore, the other number is 12.

________________________________

➠ $\cancel \dfrac{1}{4} \times \cancel \dfrac{12}{1}$ = 3

➠ 3 = 3

➠ LHS = RHS

Hence, verified.
