Answer 1

Let the number be 'x'
Given,
3*x/5 = 1*x/8 + 38
3x/5 - x/8 = 38
24x-5x/40 = 38
19x/40 = 38
x/40 = 2
x = 80 = number
Hope it helps

Answer 2

Hey dear..

Here's your solution..

==============================

According to the question:-

Let number is equal to x.
$(3 \div 5)x = (1 \div 8)x + 38 \\ (3 \div 5)x - (1 \div 8)x = 38 \\ (19 \div 40)x = 38 \\ x = 80$


So..number is 80.
