Question

Write a real world problem that can be represented by the equation 3/4c=21

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 21 books in a table if the number of books is 3/4th of the cost of each book then what is the cost of each book.

Solution :

Let c represents the cost of each book,

Also, the number of books = 21

According to the question,

3/4th of the cost of each book = total number of books

$\implies \frac{3}{4}c = 21$

Which is the required equation.

Answer 2

Answer: Real world problem is "A student have c toffee he distribute $\frac{3}{4}$th part of those toffees to his friends. He gave total 21 toffees to his friend".

Explanation:

Let a student have c number of toffees in his bag.

It is given that he distribute $\frac{3}{4}$th part of those toffees to his friends.

The $\frac{3}{4}$th part of c toffees is,

$\frac{3c}{4}$

The total number of distributed toffees is 21.

$\frac{3c}{4}=21$

It is the same as given equation.

If we change the equation in words it means the $\frac{3}{4}$th part of a number c is 21.
