Question

If 1/2 is subtracted from four times the reciprocal of a number, the result is 0. Find the number.

Answer 1

Answer:

The required number is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If $\frac{1}{2}$ is subtracted from four times the reciprocal of a number, the result is 0.

To Find : The number ?

Solution :

Let the number be x.

The reciprocal of number is $\frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{1}{2}$ is subtracted from four times the reciprocal of a number, the result is 0.

The equation will become,

$4\times \frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{2}=0$

Solving the equation we get,

$\frac{4}{x} -\frac{1}{2}=0$

$\frac{4}{x} = \frac{1}{2}$

$x= 4\times 2$

$x=8$

Therefore, the required number is 8.
