Given:
There are given the statement, "4 times a number is 156".
Explanation:
According to the question:
We need to find the number.
So,
Let the number be x.
So,
From the statement:
4 times a number is 156,
Then,
[tex]4x=156[/tex]So,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x=156 \\ x=\frac{156}{4} \\ x=39 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now,
Dividing both sides by 3:
So,
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=39 \\ \frac{x}{3}=\frac{39}{3} \\ \frac{1}{3}x=13 \end{gathered}[/tex]Final answer:
Hence, the number is 13.
