Question

Three plus the reciprocal of a number equals 7 divided by that number. What is the number

Answer 1

the answer is zero because the reciprocal isof 7 is -7 + 3 = 0

Answer 2

3+1/n=7/n make them all have a common denominator of n

3(n/n)+1/n=7/n

3n/n+1/n=7/n multiply both sides by n

3n+1=7 subtract 1 from both sides

3n=6 divide both sides by 3

n=2
