Correct Answer: 30
Explanation:
Let the number be 4N, 5N and 6N
Then, 4N + 5N + 6N/3 = 25
or 15N = 75
or N = 5
Then largest number = 6N = 6 x 5 = 30
Correct Answer: 8
Explanation:
Let (3 + x)/ (4 + x) = 11/12.
Then, 12(13 + x) = 11 (4 + x)
? x = 44 - 36 = 8
Correct Answer: 60
Explanation:
Let the number be N.
Then, 3N/4 - 2N/3 = 5
? (9N - 8N) / 12 = 5
? N = 60
Correct Answer: 40
Explanation:
Let the number be N,
Then 4N/5 = 64
? N = 64 x 5/4 = 80
? Half of the number = 80/2 = 40
Correct Answer: 30
Explanation:
Let the other number be x.
Then, 10 + x = 2(x - 10)
? x = 30
Correct Answer: 48
Explanation:
Let the required number be N,
Then, N/6 = N - 40
? N + 240 = 6N
? N = 48.
Correct Answer: 20, 30
Explanation:
Let the number be N and (50 - N)
Then, 1/N + 1/(50-N) = 1/12
? (50 - N + N) / {N(50 - N)} = 1/12
? N2 - 50N + 600 = 0
? N = 30 or 20
? the number are 20, 30
Correct Answer: 16
Explanation:
Let the antecedent be N.
Then, N/24 = 2/3
? N = (24 x 2) / 3
= 16
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
Let the number be N.
Then (N/2)2 - N = 48
? N2/4 - N = 48
?N2 - 4N-192= 0
? (N-16) (N+12) = 0
? N = 16
? The square root of the number is 4.
Correct Answer: Two
Explanation:
Let the three consecutive numbers be x, x+1 and x+2 respectively
? Diff between first and third numbers = (x + 2) - x
= 2
