Question

Ramu thinks of a number. If he adds 16 to it and 
divides the sum by 2, the result is 8. Find the number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number

Add 16

x+16

Divide the sum by 2

(x+16)/2

The answer is 8

(x+16)/2=8

Multiply each side by 2

(x+16)/2*2=8*2

x+16 = 16

Subtract 16

x+16-16 =16-16

x=0
