Question

if you subtract 1 by 8 from a number then multiply 1 by 4 the result you will get 1 by 16 find the number​

Answer 1

Answer

Let the number be X  

Subtract 1/8 from X we get,  

X - 1/8  

=> 8X - 1/8  

Multiply 8X-1/8 by 1/4 we get,  

8X-1/8 × 1/4 = 1/16  

8X -1/8 × 1/4 = 1/16  

8X-1/32 = 1/16  

16(8X-1) = 32  

128X - 16 = 32  

128X = 32+16  

128X = 48  

X = 48/128 = 3/8  

Number = X = 3/8  

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Answer:

Step by step explanation:

Let the number be x.

Given:

{X-(1/8)}*(1/4)=(1/16)

To find:

X.

Solution:

{X-(1/8)}=(1/16)÷(1/4)

{X-(1/8)}=(1/16)×4

{X-(1/8)}=(1/4)

X=(1/4)+(1/8)

X=(2/8)+(1/8)

X=((2+1)/8)

X=(3/8).

Therefore,the number is (3/8).

Hope it helps you.
