Answer:

The original number would have been 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we first need to turn the word problem into a numerical problem. For the purpose of this, let the number equal x.

7(x - 4/7) = x

7x - 4 = x

-4 = -6x

2/3 = x

There are 24 students in a class. if 16 are boys, what fraction of the students are boys?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

2/3 is the fraction of students who are boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, a fraction consists of two parts: The denominator and the numerator. The denominator is the whole, while the number is a part of the whole (and sometimes above).

1. Since in your question, there are 24 students in total in the class, the denominator will be 24.

2. You said that 16 of them are boys, so 16 is the numerator.

3. In a fraction, it will be 16/24.

4. 16/24 can be simplified into 2/3 since both 16 and 24 can be divided by 8.

So our final answer is 2/3.

Eight less than one-fourth of a number is 4
enyata [817]

1/4n-8=1/4 would be first because it says less than so you switch it. then you put the 8 since it's in the same subtraction problem. Then the word "is" indicates the equal sign. and the n represents "a number" since it is unknown.
