Question

two thirds of my numbers is the same as one quarter of fifty six. my number is ...?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two third of number = one quarter of fifty six

Let the number be x.

$\frac{2}{3} x = \frac{56}{4}$

$x = \frac{56}{4} \times \frac{3}{2} \\ = 21$

Answer 2

let the number be x

so

2/3*x=1/4*56

2/3*x=14

so

x= 14*3/2

so x is 21

check

2/3*21 is 14

hence proved
