Question

Three -fourths of a number is greater than two-thirds of the number by 7. Find the number​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the question

Let the number be 'x'

(3/4)x = (2/3)x +7

[(3/4) - (2/3)]x = 7

[(9-8)/12]x = 7

x = 12*7

x = 84

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the required number be x

$Then \: \: \: \frac{3}{4} x - \frac{2}{3} x = 7$

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 12, the LCM of 4 and 3 , we get

$9x - 8x = 84 \: \: \: \: or \: \: x = 84$

Hence the required number is 84.
