Akram thought of a number added 7, multiplied by 3, took away 5 and divided by 4 to give an answer of 7 What was the starting number?

If the final answer is 7, and Akram divided by 4 to get that answer, then the number before division was:

7 x 4 = 28

If Akram took away 5 to get 28, then the number before that was:

28 + 5 = 33

If Akram multiplied by 3 to get 33, then the number before that was:

33 ÷ 3 = 11

And if Akram added 7 to get 11, then the starting number was:

11 - 7 = 4

So, the starting number is 4!
