Question

If 3/5 of a number exceeds it's 2/7 by 44. Find the number

Answer 1

Answer:

Let x be the number.

Given, x * 3/5 = x*2/7+44

          = 3x/5-2x/7=44

          = (21x-10x)/35=44

          =  11x=44 * 35

         x=(44 * 35)/11

          x=140

So, the number is 140.

Hope this helps
