Question

The sum of 3/4 and a number is equal to 1/4 subtracted from six times the number. Find the number.

Answer 1

The sum of 3/4 and a number is equal to 1/4 subtracted from six times the number. The number is $\frac{1}{5}$.

Given The sum of $\frac{3}{4}$and a number is equal to $\frac{1}{4}$ subtracted from six times the number.

Let us take the number as 'n'.

So, we can write

The sum of $\frac{3}{4}$ and a number as $\frac{3}{4} +n$.

To sum, one must add two or more numbers or values to produce a new number.

To subtract is to take away from another value in order to obtain the desired value.

$\frac{1}{4}$ subtracted from six times the number as $6n-\frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{3}{4} +n=6n-\frac{1}{4}\\n-6n=-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{3}{4}\\-5n=-\frac{4}{4}\\5n=1\\n=\frac{1}{5}$

Therefore, the number is $\frac{1}{5}$.
