Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by working backwards.

you subtract 16 from 28 since subtracting by a negative makes you add and we want to do the inverse of that.

28-16=12

then since 12 is equal to 3/4 of a certain number, that means we have to divide that number by 3/4

12/(3/4)=16

our answer is 16
