Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
given that the number is a
The expression for Ten less than 5 times the value of a number is given by
5a - 10
10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number.
a/4 is one-fourth of number
12 more than one-fourth of the number
a/4 + 12
expression for 10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number. is given by
10(a/4 + 12) = 10a/4 + 12*10 = 2.5a + 120
Given that the above two expression are equal
equating them we have
5a - 10 = 2.5a + 120
adding 10 both sides
=>5a - 10+ 10 = 2.5a + 120 + 10
=> 5a = 2.5a + 130
subtracting 2.5a from both sides
=> 5a - 2.5a = 2.5a + 130 - 2.5a
=> 2.5a = 130
dividing both side by 2.5
=> a = 130/2.5 = 52
Thus, value of a is 52
