If the reciprocal of 4 times a number is subtracted from the reciprocal of that number the result is 1/8. What are the Numbers
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "Let the number be N
\n" ); document.write( "Then its reciprocal is: \"1%2FN\"
\n" ); document.write( "Based on given info, we get: \"1%2FN+-+1%2F%284N%29+=+1%2F8\"
\n" ); document.write( "8 - 2 = N ------ Multiplying by LCD, 8N
\n" ); document.write( "N, or number = \"highlight_green%286%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "What NUMBERS are you referring to? There is just 1 number!! \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
