To solve this problem, we are going to set up an equation. Let the number that we are trying to find be represented by the variable x. If we plug in the numbers that we know, we get the following equation:
3x/4 = 24
To simplify this equation, we need to multiply both sides by 4, to begin getting the x alone on the left side of the equation.
3x = 96
Finally, we need to divide both sides by 3, to get rid of the coefficient that is being multiplied to x.
x = 32
Therefore, the number that you are trying to find is 32.

Answer:
The midpoint of the x-intercepts of the function is (0, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that since the function comes in factor form, we know that its roots (which are actually the intercepts the function has with the x-axis) are: x = 4 and x = -4 (the x-values for which the function renders zero).
These two points are equidistant from the origin of coordinates (0, 0), and therefore the midpoint of these x-intercepts is (0, 0).
