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!

Let the number be x
So,
3x/5 - 2x/7 = 44
21x - 10x/35 = 44
11x/35 = 44
x = 4 *35
x = 140
So,
3x/5 - 2x/7 = 44
21x - 10x/35 = 44
11x/35 = 44
x = 4 *35
x = 140
