Answer:

There are 21 books in a table if the number of books is 3/4th of the cost of each book then what is the cost of each book.

Solution :

Let c represents the cost of each book,

Also, the number of books = 21

According to the question,

3/4th of the cost of each book = total number of books


\implies (3)/(4)c = 21

Which is the required equation.

Answer: Real world problem is "A student have c toffee he distribute
(3)/(4)th part of those toffees to his friends. He gave total 21 toffees to his friend".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a student have c number of toffees in his bag.

It is given that he distribute
(3)/(4)th part of those toffees to his friends.

The
(3)/(4)th part of c toffees is,


(3c)/(4)

The total number of distributed toffees is 21.


(3c)/(4)=21

It is the same as given equation.

If we change the equation in words it means the
(3)/(4)th part of a number c is 21.
