Answer:

  12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of 12 = 4

1/4 of 12 = 3

4 is 1 more than 3.

The number is 12.

_____

If this does not immediately come to mind, you can solve for the number, x:

  x/3 -x/4 = 1 . . . . the difference between 1/3 of x and 1/4 of x is 1

  x/12 = 1 . . . . . . . collect terms: (1/3 -1/4 = 4/12 -3/12 = 1/12)

  x = 12 . . . . . . . . multiply by 12

PLS HELP <br>find the unknown side of the triangle below (round to the nearest tenth) <br>​
Nonamiya [84]
22.9 is the closest but not exact. It was probably rounded off.

I used the formula: leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2

(You can use that formula for any right triangle.)
