Lets suppose the number is;
X
One fourth of the number would be:
1/4X
9 less the number means subtracting 9 from the number. Hence:
1/4X-9
This all is equal to 6.
Therefore our equation is:
1/4X-9=6
Solving it by making X the subject of the formula
1/4X=6+9
1/4X=15
Cross multiplying, we get:
15=4X
So dividing 15 by 4:
15/4=X
OR
X=15/4
Which gives us:
X= 3 3/4
OR
X=3.75
Hence the number is 15/4
