let the number be x.
then,
x/10+10 = x/8-10
x+100/10=x-80/8
8(x+100)=10(x-80) .............(by cross multiplication)
8x+800=10x-800
8x-10x= -800-800
-2x= -1600
2x= 1600
x= 1600/2
x=800
then,
x/10+10 = x/8-10
x+100/10=x-80/8
8(x+100)=10(x-80) .............(by cross multiplication)
8x+800=10x-800
8x-10x= -800-800
-2x= -1600
2x= 1600
x= 1600/2
x=800

Let the no. be x...... ATQ.....x/10+10=x/8-10..............x/10-x/8=-10-10...............4x-5x/40= -20.......-1x/40=-20.......x=-20×40/-1( - sign gets cancelled).............x=800....
