Hey dear here is your answer
This word problem related to linear equations in one varibles.
Read the problem carefully and convert it into linear equation.
Let the number = x
1 / 3 rd of the number = x / 3
2 / 7 of the number = 2x / 7
Relation given is ,
1 / 3 of the number exceeds its 2 / 7 by 1.
x / 3 - 2x / 7 = 1
L C M of 3 and 7 = 3 × 7 = 21
( 7x - 6x ) / 21 = 1
x / 21 = 1
Multiply both sides with 21 we get
21 × x / 21 = 1 × 21
x = 21
Therefore
Required number = x = 21

1÷3x=2÷7x+1
(1÷3x)-(2÷7x)=1
x÷21=1
x=21
(1÷3x)-(2÷7x)=1
x÷21=1
x=21
