Answer 1

Answer:

1. 36

2. 12

3. 28

4. question is wrong

5. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

1. let the number be=x

1/3 rd of x = 1/3 × x =x/3

According to the question-

x/3+4=16

=> lcm=3

=> x+12 = 16

3

=>x+12= 16×3

=>x+12=48

=>x=48-12

=>x=36

required no=36

2. let me no. be x

5times of x=5x

ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION-

5x-19=41

=>5x=41+19

=>5x=60

=>x=60/5

=>x=12

3. let the no be x

1/4 of x=x/4

1/7 of x=x/7

ACCORDING TO THE

x/4-x/7=3

=>7x-4x=3

28

=>3x=3×28

=>3x=84

=>x=84/3

=>x=28

required no.=28

5. let the no. be= x

ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION-

x+21=71-x

=>x+x=71-21

=>2x=50

=>x=50/2

=>x=25

required no. =25
