The required value of x is 36

Step-by-step explanation :

Let the required number be x.

Three fourth of number = (3/4)x

One third of number = (1/3) x

According to the question ;

3x/4 = x/3 + 15

→ 3x/4-x/3 = 15

→ 9x - 4x / 12 = 15

→ 5x = 15 x 12

⇒ x = 180 / 5

⇒ x = 36

Hope this answer helps you..!!!
