Question

if the sum of 1/2,1/3,1/5 of a number is 62 find that number
Please mention with step by step explanations ​

Answer 1

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

let the no.be x

then 1/2 ox =1/2x, 1/3 of x = 1/3x, 1/5 of x=1/5x

1/2x +1/3x+1/5x= 62

(15x+10x+6x)/30 = 62 (after taking lcm of 2,3,5)

now 31x/30= 62

do cross multiply-- x=30×62/31

x= 2×30 =60

hence the number is 60
