You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let n = "the number"
:
Find a number seven-fourths of which exceeds its three-fourths by 150. n - n = 150
multiply by 4, this cancels the denominators and you have:
7n - 3n = 4(150)
4n = 600
n = 600/4
n = 150
:
;
See if that checks out *150 - *150 = 150
262.5 - 112.5 = 150
