If a number is multiplied by three-fourths of itself, the result is 10700. What is the number?
Answer: 70
Explanation
Let "x" be the number.
Three-fourths of the number is (3/4)x.
When we multiply the number by three-fourths of itself,
we get: x * (3/4)x = 10700.
This simplifies to (3/4)x² = 10700.
Solving for x, we get x = 70.
