Question

if 5/7 of a number exceed it 3/7 by56 find the number​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number be x.

$\frac{3x}{7}$ + 56 = $\frac{5x}{7}$

56 = $\frac{5x}{7}$ -  $\frac{3x}{7}$

56 = $\frac{2x}{7}$

$\frac{56 * 7}{2}$ = x

196 = x

So the number is 196.

Answer 2

Answer:

196

Step-by-step explanation:

let the both number be x

first number = 5/7x

second number = 3/7x

= 5/7 x - 3/7x = 56

= 5x -3x / 7 = 56

= 2x / 7 = 56

= 2x = 56 × 7

= x = 56 × 7 / 2

= x = 28 × 7= 196

= x = 196
