Ithought of a number, subtracted it from 6 1/4 , multiplied the difference by 1 2/3 and then by 2 4/5 . the result was the same as the result of division of 146 by 5 3/14 . what was my number?

Number was

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number was x.

As per statement of the question,

Subtracted from

⇒ - x

⇒

Difference was multiplied by

=

=

Then again multiplied by Or

=

=

This result was same as the result of division of 146 by

=

=

= 28

Now = 28

x =

  =

  =

  =

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.

yes the total will be same because in both of them the expression.is rearranged but their sign remains the same hence it hss just been shuffled
