Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given situation , a quantity x is added to \frac{1}{4} x gives 15.

We can set up equation as

x+\frac{1}{4}x=15

Multiply each term by 4 on both sides to get rid the denominator.

It gives,

4 x+x=60

Now, combine like terms

5 x=60

Divide both sides by 5

x=12.
