Question

The double of anumber is greater by 48 than its half. find the number

Answer 1

hello friend!

Let the number be "x"

According to the question,
the equation is 2x = x/2 + 48 

=> 2x = x/2 + 48 
=> 2x - x/2 = 48
=> 3x/2 = 48
=> x = 48 * 2/3 
=> x = 16 * 2
=> x = 32

∴  the number (x) is 32

hope it helps!
