1. Let the number be x. According to the question, 1/2(x-1/2)=1/8 ⇒ 2x1/2(x-1/2)=1/8x2 [Multiplying both sides by 2] ⇒ x-1/2=1/4 ⇒ x-1/2+1/2=1/4+1/2 [Adding both sides1/2] ⇒ x=1+2/4 ⇒ x=3/4 Hence, the required number is 3/4 for more answers vist to: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-solutions/class-8Read more

    Let the number be x.
    According to the question, 1/2(x-1/2)=1/8
    ⇒ 2×1/2(x-1/2)=1/8×2 [Multiplying both sides by 2]
    ⇒ x-1/2=1/4
    ⇒ x-1/2+1/2=1/4+1/2 [Adding both sides1/2]
    ⇒ x=1+2/4 ⇒ x=3/4
    Hence, the required number is 3/4
