So We are asked to find a number which would be as much as greater than 35 as it is less than 53 .

Let the number be x

The number is less than 53 by " 53 - x "

The number is greater than 35 by " x - 35 "

According to the question,

Therefore, The required number is 44 .

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

A number is as much greater than 35 as is less than 53.

To find :-

Find the number ?

Solution :-

Let the number be X

The number is greater than 35 = X-35

The number less than 53 = 53-X

According to the given problem

A number is as much greater than 35 as is less than 53.

=> X-35 = 53-X

=> X+X = 53+35

(Transposing X to LHS and 35 to RHS)

=> 2X = 88

=> X = 88/2

(Transposing 2 from RHS)

=> X = 44

Therefore, X = 44

Answer:-

The required number for the given problem is 44

Check :-

According to the given problem

44-35 = 9

53-44 = 9

44-35 = 53-44 = 9
