Answer 1

Answer:

let the no be x

then,

x/4=x/6+4

x/4-x/6=4

(3x-2x)/12=4

x/12=4

x=4×12

x=48 ans

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the no. be x

Fourth part of no = x/4

Sixth part of no. = x/6

$\frac{x}{4} = \frac{x}{6} + 4$

$\frac{x}{4} - \frac{x}{6} = 4$

$\frac{3x - 2x}{12} = 4$

$3x - 2x = 4 \times 12$

$x = 48$
