Answer 2

The required number is 8.

Explanation:

Given : If
`(1)/(2)` is subtracted from four times the reciprocal of a number, the result is 0.

To Find : The number ?

Solution :

Let the number be x.

The reciprocal of number is
`(1)/(x)`

`(1)/(2)` is subtracted from four times the reciprocal of a number, the result is 0.

The equation will become,

`4* (1)/(x) - (1)/(2)=0`

Solving the equation we get,

`(4)/(x) -(1)/(2)=0`

`(4)/(x) = (1)/(2)`

`x= 4* 2`

`x=8`

Therefore, the required number is 8.
