Question

2. Two-third of a number is greater than one-thid of the number by 3. Find the number ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the required number be x .

therefore ,

two third of the number = 2x/3  

one third of the number = x/3  

now,

according to the question,

2x/3 - x/3 = 3  

the number = ?

=> 2x/3 - x/3 = 3

=> (2x-x)/3 = 3  

=> x/3 = 3

=> therefore,  

=> x = 9

You can check the value out by evaluating it on the equation,

2x/3 - x/3 = 3
