Question

The difference between two-third and three-fifth of a number is 10.Find the number?

Answer 1

let number be =X

so

2/3 of X - 3/5 of X = 10

2x/3 - 3x/5 = 10

let base 15

10x/15 - 9x/15 = 10

1x/15=10

X = 15 × 10

X = 150

the number = 150

hope it helps you.

Answer 2

Given : The difference between two-third and three-fifth of a number is 10

To find : The said number.

Solution :

The said number is 150

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to determine the said number)

Let, the number = x

Two third of the number = ⅔ × x = 2x/3

Three fifth of the number = ⅗ × x = 3x/5

According to the data mentioned in the question,

(2x/3) - (3x/5) = 10

(10x - 9x)/15 = 10

x/15 = 10

x = 15×10

x = 150

(This will be considered as the final result and this value of x will be said number itself.)

Hence, the number is 150
