Plz i need help urgently I’ll mark brainiest the sum of a number, two thirds of the number and a quarter number of the number gives 5 3/4, find the number

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

so you have to make an equation where you let x=the number, so it would be

x+(2/3)x+(1/4)x=5 3/4

you combine the like terms to get

(23/12)x = 5 3/4

multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 23/12 to isolate x, and you're left with

x=36/92, which simplifies to 9/23.
