Question

If two thirds of a rational number exceeds its three fifths by 1 3/ 4 find the rational number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the required number be x.

$\frac{2x}{3} - \frac{3x}{5} = 1 \frac{3}{4} \\ \\ \frac{10x - 9x}{15} = \frac{7}{4} \\ \\ x = \frac{7}{4} \times 15 \\ \\ x = \frac{105}{4}$

105/4
