Question:
Find a number whose double is 45 greater than its half.
Solution:
Let the number be $\mathrm{x}$.
According to the question,
$2 \mathrm{x}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{x}+45$
or $2 \mathrm{x}-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{x}=45$
or $\frac{4 \mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}}{2}=45$
or $3 \mathrm{x}=90[$ After c ross multiplication $]$
or $\mathrm{x}=\frac{90}{3}$
or $\mathrm{x}=30$
Thus, the number is 30 .
