Translate the sentence to an equation. Then solve and check.

3/4 of a number is equal to 36.

The equation is [?] . (Type an equation using x as the variable.)


The solution is x= [?] . (Simplify your answer.)

Answer 1

Suppose that x is that number thus:

$\frac{3}{4} x = 36$

Multiply both sides by 4

$4 \times \frac{3}{4} x = 4 \times 36$

$3x = 144$

Divide both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{144}{3}$

$x = 48$

There u go...

Have a great day ❤
