Question

one third of number is two more than one fourth of it's successor.find no.​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 27 answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x,

x/3 = (x+1)/4 + 2

x/3 - 2 = (x+1)/4

(x - 6)/3 = (x+1)/4

4(x-6) = 3(x+1)

4x - 24 = 3x + 3

4x - 3x = 3 +24

x = 27 answer

Answer 2

let the no. be x

its successor is x + 1

given that one - third of a no. is two more than one - fourth of its successor .

=> ( 1/3 ) of x = ( x+1 ) / 4 + 2

=> 27

therefore , the no. is 27.
