hey mate....
here is your answer:
Given:
a number is decreased by 10 equals two-third of the number.
Required:
To find the number=?
Solution:
let suppose the number be = x
According to the given condition:
x - 10 = x
Multiplying 3 on both sides:
3( x - 10 ) = 3 ( x )
3x - 10 = 2x
Subtracting 2x from both sides:
3x - 2x - 10 = 2x - 2x
x - 10 = 0
Adding 10 on both sides:
x - 10 + 10 = 0 + 10
x = 10
Result:
hence,
10 is our required number.
hope this helps...
