Question

If three times a number is at least four more than eight times the number, which of the following is true?

Answer 1

Answer:

$Required \: number =\frac{-4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Let \: the \: number \:be \: x$

According to the problem given,

Three times a number is at least four more than eight times the number

$3x = 8x+4$

$\implies -4 = 8x-3x$

$\implies -4 = 5x$

$\implies \frac{-4}{5}=x$

Therefore,

$Required \: number =\frac{-4}{5}$
