Question

The sum of one-third of a number and three-fourths of the number exceeds that number by one.

Which equation could be used to find the number?

1/3n = 3/4n + 1
1/3n + n 3/4= n - 1
1/3n + n 3/4= n + 1

Answer 1

The correct answer is last option

1/3n + n 3/4= n + 1

Explanation:

It is given that,the sum of one-third of a number and three-fourths of the number exceeds that number by one

To find the correct option

Let 'n' be the number, one- third of the number = 1/3(n)

three - fourths of the number = 3/(4n)

Therefore the equation becomes,

1/(n) + 3/4(n) = n + 1

Therefore the correct answer is last option

Answer 2

The answer would be...

1/3n + 3/4n = n + 1

^^^That would be the last option

Hope this helped!
