Question

if you subtract 1/2 fro a number and multiply the result by 2/1,you get 1/8.what is the number​

Answer 1

Answer:

hii

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number x

Given 1/2 is subtracted from x

hence the number is (x – 1/2)

When 1/2 is multiplied by (x – 1/2) the resultant number is 1/8.

⇒ (1/2)(x – 1/2) = (1/8)

⇒ (x – 1/2) = (1/4)

⇒ 4x – 2 = 1

⇒ 4x = 3

∴ x = 3/4
