Question

number which added to its two third is equal to 55. find the number​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First part of the problem: a no. Added to the 2/3rd of its own.

x + (2/3)x

Second part: is equal to 55

x + (2/3)x = 55

=> (5/3)x=55

=> x= (55*3)/5

=>x=11*3

=> x=33

Hence,the original number is 33.

Rechecking through answer.

If 33 is the original number, Lets check if 22 is its 2/3rd.

33*(2/3)=>11*2=>22

Hence proved.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

therefore ,

the added number = x + 2x/3

x + 2x/3 = 55

=→ x +2x = 55/3

=→ 3x = 55/3

=→ x = 55/3*3

=→ x = 55.

therefore, the number is 55.
