Question

Find the natural number such that if 69 is added to 1/8th of 1/3 of the number we get same natural number​

Answer 1

let the natural number be X.

$\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{1}{3} x + 69 = x \\ \frac{1}{24} x + 69 = x \\ \frac{1}{24} x - x = - 69 \\ \frac{x - 24x}{24} = - 69 \\ \frac{ - 23x}{24} = - 69 \\ \frac{23x}{24} = 69 \\ x = \frac{69 \times 24}{23} \\ x = 3 \times 24 \\ x = 72$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 x 1/3X+69=X

1/24X + 69 = X

1/24X - X = -69

-23X/24= -69

X =69 x 24 /23

X = 72
