1/3 (1/4x) = 20
1/12x = 20
x = 20 / (1/12)
x = 20 * 12/1
x = 240

3/10(240) = 
720/10 =

one-third of one-fourth of a number is 20

means:

1/3 (1/4 * x) = 20

then solve for x....

1/12 * x = 20
x= 20*12 = 240


three-tenth of that number = 3/10 of 240  = 3/10*240 = 72


that's it

hope that helps
