Answer 2

Answer:

The number is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

According to question,

(1/5 + x) X 10/17=6

Or, (1+5x)/5 X 10/17=6

Or, 10(1+5x)/(5 X 17)=6

Or, (10 + 50x)/85=6

Or, 10 + 50x = 6 X 85

Or, 10 + 50x = 510

Or, 50x = 510 – 10

Or, 50x = 500

Or, x =500/50

∴ x = 10
