What is the difference between rote learning vs meaningful learning?
Great question! There is a world of difference between Rote Learning and Meaningful Learning. To begin with Rote Learning involves learners repeating statements or pieces of information till they’ve memorised it. Remember the time when you had to learn the Pythagorean theorem of A2+ B2 = C2 ? How many times did you have to repeat it to yourself before you could remember it? Clearly Rote Learning is no fun way of learning. Then why do so many learners still follow the technique? It is because learners are unable to connect new information to what they already know in a logical manner. Simply put, when a learner does not understand a certain concept well enough, he/she relies on trying to memorise it without actually knowing what it means. While such a technique might help students recall answ

Let the number be x.
First part of the problem: a no. Added to the 2/3rd of its own.
x + (2/3)x
Second part: is equal to 55
x + (2/3)x = 55
=> (5/3)x=55
=> x= (55*3)/5
=>x=11*3
=> x=33
Hence,the original number is 33.
Rechecking through answer.
If 33 is the original number, Lets check if 22 is its 2/3rd.
33*(2/3)=>11*2=>22
Hence proved.
