It's a simple algebraic equation ... a mathematical "riddle".
The answer to the riddle is: what the number must be.
Here's how to find it:
We don't know what the number is yet, but we have to give it some name.
I have decided to call it ' Q ' for now.
The riddle says that " Q/36 = 1/3 "
Mutiply each side of the riddle by 36:
Q = 108
Oh, what a happy little question! To find the quotient of -36 divided by -4, we get 9. Now, if we add 9 to this quotient, we get 18. Just imagine that number sitting on your canvas, bringing a smile to your face.
14.4
The number is -36 because (1/3 of -36) + 11 = -1
The number is -36

one third of 36 is 12

1/2x+6=1/3x 3x+36=2x 3x=2x-36 x=-36
The number is -36 because (1/3 of -36) + 11 = -1
Answer: Nope.The quotient is 651,580.833 Answer: Try dividing 36 by 23456910. If you get a whole number, then yes, it is; otherwise no, it isn't.
The number is -36
36/4 = 9
Let's represent the unknown number as "x." The quotient of -36 and 9 can be expressed as -36/9. The equation can be written as (-36/9) > 4x + 8. Simplifying, we get -4 > 4x + 8. By further simplifying, we find -12 > 4x, which can be written as x < -3.
