Question

3/7 of which is 2 1/14

Answer 1

Let the number be x

The statement is written as

`(3)/(7)x = (29)/(14)`

Multiply through by 14

That's

`14 * (3)/(7) x = (29)/(14) * 14`

We get

2 × 3x = 29

6x = 29

Divide both sides by 6

That's

`(6x)/(6) = (29)/(6)`

`x \: = (29)/(6) \: \: or \\ 4 (5)/(6)`

Hope this helps you
