Question

if you subtract 1/2 from number and multiply the result by 1/2 you get 1/8 what the number​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

Subtracting $\frac{1}{2}$ from x: $x-\frac{1}{2}$

Multiplying the result by $\frac{1}{2}$ to get $\frac{1}{8}$: $\frac{1}{2} (x-\frac{1}{2} )=\frac{1}{8}$

Multiply both sides by 2: $2*\frac{1}{2} (x-\frac{1}{2} )=\frac{1*2}{8}$

Simplify: $x-\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{4}$

Add $\frac{1}{2}$ to both sides: $x=\frac{3}{4}$.
