Question

If you double a number, you will get the same as the triple of one-fourth of 24. What is the number?

Answer 1

One fourth of 24 = 1/4 x 24 = 6
Triple one fourth of 24 = 6 x 3 = 18
Half of 18 = 18/ 2 = 9

9 can be double to get the same answer as the triple of one fourth of 24.

Answer 2

x = 9

Explanation:

Let's write an equation.

2x = 3 x (24 x 1/4)

2x = 3 x 6

2x = 18

x = 9
