Question

. If you subtract 1/8 from a number and multiply the result by 1/4, you get 1/16. What is the number?
8 Ry what rational number should 22/7 be divided, to get the number - 11/24?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let us consider the number be x

As per the given condition

If we subtract 1/2 from a number and multiply the result by 1/2, then we get 1/8.

So the equation becomes

⇒ (1/2)(x – 1/2) = (1/8)

⇒ (x – 1/2) = (1/4)

⇒ 4x – 2 = 1

⇒ 4x = 3

Hence x = 3/4

3/4 is the number.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-1/8)*1/4=1/16

x-1/8=1/4

x=1/4+1/8

x=3/8

8)

22/7 divided x=-11/24

22/7*1/x=-11/24

x=22/7*24/-11=-48/7

x=-48/7
