If you add 1/3 of a number to the number itself, you get 16. What is the number?

Let, the number = x
x/3 + x = 16
x+3x /3 = 16
4x = 16*3
x = 48/4
x = 12

So, the number would be 12

Hope this helps!

What is the radian measure for an angle that measures 720 degrees?

Scrat [10]

Answer:

720 degrees = $\frac{\pi}{4}\ radians$ or 0.785 radians.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The angle in degrees in given as 720°

We need to convert this to radians.

Now, we know that, the relation between degrees and radians is given as:

180 degree = π radians

Therefore, using unitary method, the value of 1 degree can be calculated.

∴ 1 degree = $\frac{\pi}{180}\ radians$

Now, the value of 720 degrees can be calculated by multiplying the unit value and 720. So,

$720\ degrees=\frac{\pi}{180}\times 720\ radians\\\\ 720\ degrees =\frac{720\pi}{180}\\\\720\ degrees =\frac{\pi}{4}\ radians=0.785\ radians$

Hence, the measure of 720 degrees in radians is $\frac{\pi}{4}\ radians$ or 0.25π radians or 0.785 radians.
