Question

1) 50% of a number is 18 less than two thirds of a number, then the number

Answer 1

Answer: 108

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

According to the question, 50% of x = 2/3x - 18

⇒50/100 × x = 2/3x - 18

⇒1/2x = 2/3x -18

⇒18 = 2/3x -1/2x

⇒18= x ( 2/3 - 1/2)

⇒18 = x ( $\frac{4 - 3}{6}$ )

⇒18 = x ( 1/6)

⇒18 × 6 = x

⇒x = 108

∴The required number = 108
