What number gives the same result if you divide it by 2 or take 2 from it? What number gives the same result if you divide it by 3 or take 3 from it?
Note: you will need to include a fraction or decimal for this one...
For the first number it's given that X/2 = X - 2 X = 4 Which means 4/2 = 4 - 2 = 2 For the second number X/3 = X - 3 X = 9/2 Which means (9/2)÷3 = (9/2) - 3 = 3/2.
Suppose the number be x. Then given, x/2 =x - 2. or 2x - 4 = x. Or x = 4 is the answer. M J SUBRAMANYAM
There is a number which when you multiply by 3 and subtract 2 from the result, then the resulting number is the reverse of the actual number.
What is the smallest number that stands true on the statement?
Guess a number 1-10, multiply it by 2, now add with 54 and divide by 2. Lastly, subtract the number you guessed 1-10. What number are you left with, and what is unusual about it?
A number is multiplied by 2 1/3 times itself and then 61 is subtracted from the product obtained. If the final result is 9200, then what is the number?
