The sum of one-third of a number and three-fourths of the number exceeds that number by one. Which equation could be used to find the number? a.1/3n=3/4n+1 b.1/3n+3/4n=n-1 c.1/3n+3/4n=n+1

OpenStudy (welshfella):

note 'exceeds that number by 1' and that number is n -- so which one do you think it is?
