1/4 = golf balls gave away
3/4 = remaining golf balls
4/4 = Total golf balls

3/4 = 0.75
divide 11463 by the decimal
11463/ 0.75 = 15284
you started with 15284 golf balls

So you have 3/4 left.
3/4 of x = 11463
x = 11463 x 4/3
(x is what you want to find)

If you have 75 cents, and you had given away 1 quarter,
how much did you start with (x) ?
1-1/4 = 3/4
3/4 * x=11463
Put things in simple terms which you can deal with.
x=11463 / (3/4)= (11463*4)/3= something ( do the math)

15284.75? What does 3/4 of a golf ball look like? Does it roll? Ha! I'm SO not numbers, I'm words. I'm Chevy, not Ford
I'm Beatles, not Elvis
I'm beach, not mountains
and yes, the 70's were really good to me ;-)
Peace,
Laurie

x - x/4 = 11463
3x/4 = 11463
x = 4*11463/3
x = 15284
