3/4 of a number is 30. What is the number? )) What is the number?

Answer 1

To find the number we can create the following equation and solve for x:

`(3)/(4)\cdot x=30`

Let x be the missing number, use inverse operations to solve the equation:

`\begin{gathered} x=30\cdot(4)/(3) \\ x=(120)/(3) \\ x=40 \end{gathered}`

The number is 40.
