four-third of a number is greater than three-fifths of the number by 22 find the number.
Answers
Given :
four-third of a number is greater than three-fifths of the number by 22
To Find :
find the number.
Solution :
Let the number be x.
Four third of a number = (4/3)x
Three fifth of a number = (3/5)x
ATQ:
=> (4/3)x = (3/5)x + 22
=> (4/3)x - (3/5)x = 22
=> (4x/3) - (3x/5) = 22
=> (20x - 9x) /15 = 22
=> 11x/15 = 22
=> 11x = 15*22
=> 11x = 330
=> x = 330/11
=> x = 30
Hence, the number is 30
Answer:
GiVeN
Four third of a number is more than three fifths of the number by 22
To find
The unknown number
Solution:
Let the unknown number be x
So, according to the condition we can write-
Four third of a number= 4/3 x
Three fifths of the same number= 3/5 x
The difference between the two is given as 22 ( Greater number- Smaller number)
So we can write-
(4/3)x - (3/5)x = 22
or, 11/15 x = 22
or, x= (22*15)/11
or, x= 30
The unknown number is 30.
