Clelia · Answer 1

You have to do 48 / 4 which is 12. 12+12=24 24+24=48 The working out just shown is the same as 12+12+12+12 or 12x4. 12x4=48.

Jaylon Mckinney · Answer 2

lets take the number is x

now according to condition, 4 times x is 48

i. e

4*x = 48

divide 4 on both sides

4x / 4 = 48/4

x = 12

so 12 is the number which when multiplied by 4 gives 48 ...
