Question

if 2/3 a number exceeds its 3/5 by 1 , find te number 

Answer 1

Exceeding meaning increasing

When 2/3 of a number exceeds 3/5 of the number by 1.

Let the number be x.

2/3 of x = 3/5 of c + 1

2/3 of x – 3/5 of x = 1

(10 – 9) / 15 of x = 1

1/15 of x = 1

On cross multiplying,

x = 1 * 15

x = 15

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. be x

According to the question:

2x/3 - 3x/5 = 1

Lcm = 15

(10x-9x)/15 =1

x/15 =1

x = 15

Therefore the no. is 15
