Question

kanisha thinks of a number. if she takes 7 away from 5/6 of that number , the result is 28 . Find the number.

Answer 1

let the no. be x
therefore as per the question,
5/6x -7=28
therefore,
5/6x=35
so,
35 X 6 = 5x
X = 42

Answer 2

Answer: 42

Step-by-step explanation:

first she multiplied the number by 5/6

then she subtracted 7 from it

equation formed will be:

=>5x/6 - 7 = 28

=>5x/6 = 28 +7 = 35

=>x = 35 * 6 / 5

=>x = 7 *6

=> the number is 42
