Question

what value of a makes the following correct: a/a - a/2 + a/4=a/12​

Answer 1

$\huge {\bold {\red {Solution}}}$

$<b ><font color ="pink" ><font size ="5" >$

$= > \frac{a}{a} - \frac{a}{2} + \frac{a}{4} = \frac{a}{12} \\ \\ = > \frac{1}{ 1 } - \frac{a}{2} + \frac{a}{4} = \frac{a}{12} \\ \\ = > \frac{8 - 4 a + 2a}{8} = \frac{a}{12} \\ \\ = > \frac{8 - 2a}{2} = \frac{a}{3} \\ \\ = > 24 - 6a = 2a \\ \\ = > 8a = 24 \\ \\ = > a = \frac{24}{8} \\ \\ = > a = 3$

$</b ></font ></font>$
