Answer:

42

Explanation:

Let that number be x

x is multiplied by 0.5, 1/3, then squared

(0.5/3 x)^2

Add 1: (0.5/3 x)^2 +1

Make it equal to 50

: (0.5/3 x)^2 +1 = 50 now solve

(0.5/3 x)^2 =50-1

(0.5/3 x)^2 =49

square root both sides ending up with:

0.5/3 x=7

solve for x

x=42

GOOD LUCK AND HOPE IT HELPS:))
