Question

a number when is added to its 1/3 is equal to 55 find the number​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the number= x

two thirds of the number =2x/3

x+2x/3 =55

(3x + 2x) /3 = 55

5x/3=55

x = (55× 3 )/5

x = 11×3

x = 33

the required number = x = 33

$\tt Let \: number\: be \: x$

$\tt And \: it's\: \frac{1}{3 }be\: x× \frac{1}{3 }$

Let's solve

A/q

$x×\frac{1}{3 } + x = 55$

$\frac{x}{3 } + x =55$

$\frac{x+ 3x}{3 } = 55$

$x+ 3x = 55×3$

$4x = 165$

$x = \frac{165}{4} \: \: \: Ans$
