    To find the missing number first you can write the equation:

    X (3) / 4=24

    (x times three divided by four is equal to 24)

    Then you need to multiply 4*24 and you get a total of 96

    Finally you divide 96 by 3 and you get a total of 32 so ...

    The missing number is 32

    To solve this problem, we are going to set up an equation. Let the number that we are trying to find be represented by the variable x. If we plug in the numbers that we know, we get the following equation:

    3x/4 = 24

    To simplify this equation, we need to multiply both sides by 4, to begin getting the x alone on the left side of the equation.

    3x = 96

    Finally, we need to divide both sides by 3, to get rid of the coefficient that is being multiplied to x.

    x = 32

    Therefore, the number that you are trying to find is 32.
