It should be 261.3333333we have to go for calculation from both sides. atleast thats what i did...from last.we have 2 2*10 2020-8 1212*12 144144+52 196196*7 1372now let the number be x so 3x + (3/4)*3x 1372or 21x 5488x 261.3333333So hope so that the ans is 261.333333If someone else thinks differently then plz contributeCheers!!!!

step 1: 10*2 20
step 2: 20-8 12
step 3:taking L.C.M this gives the left hand side to be

sqrt( ( ( 3x+9x/4) /7)- 52) 12
step 4: sqrt( ( (12x+9x) /28)-52) 12
step 5: sqrt( (12x+9x-1456)/28) 12
step 6: taking 7 as common inside the sqrt and cancelling it

sqrt((3x-208)/4) 12
step 7: squaring both sides

3x-208 144*4
step 8: 3x-208 576

step 9: 3x 576-208 308

step 10:x 308/3 106.666.................
