Question

Provide an appropriate response.
Identify an integer x for which 3x/4 represents a ratio greater than 3 : 1 but less than 4 : 1.

Answer 1

3x/4 > 3/1 and 3x/4 < 4/1
3x > 12 and 3x < 16
x > 4 and x < 16/3

so 4 < x < 16/3 ,(16/3 = 5.333..)

the only integer in that range is 5

check :
Is 15/4 > 3 ? YES
Is 15/4 < 4 ? YES !!
