Answer:
The required number is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required number be x.
Now, it is given that, 3 plus quotient of a number and 2 is 7, then
[tex]3 + \frac{x}{2}=7[/tex]
Subtracting '3' from both sides of the above equation, we get
[tex]3 + \frac{x}{2}-3=7-3[/tex]
[tex]\implies\frac{x}{2} =4[/tex]
Now, multiplying both sides by '2' in the above obtained equation, we get
[tex]\frac{x}{2}\times2 = 4\times2[/tex]
[tex]\implies x = 8[/tex]
So, the required number is 8.
