Question

if 3/5 of a number exceeds it's 2/7 by 44, find the number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The no is 140

Step-by-step explanation:let the no is X then from the question we can write

(3/5)*X = (2/7)*X +44

=> (3/5 - 2/7)*X = 44

=> (21-10)*X/35 = 44

=> 11*X/35 = 44

=> X = 44*35/11

= 140

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the number is x

Then the given question,

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

= 3x/5 - 2x/7 = 44

= (21x - 10x) / 35 = 44

11x = 44 x 35

x = 44 x 35 / 11

x= 4 x 35

x = 140
