Answer : The number will be, 2
Explanation:
Let the number be, 'x'
As we are given that the quotient of a number and 4 is added to 1/2, then the result is 5/4.
Thus, the expression will be:
[tex]\frac{x}{4}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{4}[/tex]
Now by solving the expression, we get the value of 'x'.
[tex]\frac{x+2}{4}=\frac{5}{4}[/tex]
[tex]x+2=5[/tex]
[tex]x=5-2[/tex]
[tex]x=3[/tex]
Thus, the number will be, 2
