1x/2-1x/3=1
3-2x/6=1
1x/6=1
x=6

2/3*6
=4 ans.

Answer 2

Hey mate ...
=========

Let the number be x.

Given,

The differences between half of a number and one-third of a number is 1

Thus,

$\frac{1}{2} x - \frac{1}{3} x = 1 \\ \\ = > \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x}{3} = 1 \\ \\ = > \frac{3x - 2x}{6} = 1 \\ \\ = > x = 6$

Now,

Two-third of a number

=$\frac{2}{3} \times 6 \\ \\ = > 4$

The required number is 4
