Question

Four fifth of a number is more than two fifth of the number by 2 find the number

Answer 1

✿ Solution - ✿

Let's assume the number as x

According to Question,

4x / 5 = 2x / 5 + 2

=> 4x / 5 = (2x + 10) / 5

=> 4x = 2x + 10

=> 4x - 2x = 10

=> 2x = 10

=> x = 10 / 2

=> x = 5

Hence, the required number is 5

✿ Explaination - ✿

♢ Four-Fifth = 4 / 5

♢ Two-Fifth = 2 / 5

♢ More = Addition [ sign "+" ]

♢ Of = Multiply [ sign "×" ]

=> 4x/5 = 2x/5 + 2

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the number as x

According to Question,

4x / 5 = 2x / 5 + 2

=> 4x / 5 = (2x + 10) / 5

=> 4x = 2x + 10

=> 4x - 2x = 10

=> 2x = 10

=> x = 10 / 2

=> x = 5
