Answer 2

Given:

✰ The sum of 1/3rd of a number and 27 is equal to 50.

To find:

✠ The number.

Solution:

Let the number be x.

Now, we know that the sum of 1/3rd of a number as we have considered the number as 'x' , So 1/3rd of x, 'of' here means multiplication and 1/3rd of x - 1/3rd × x. Now, we will add both 1/3rd × x and 27 and then we will get it's sum which is equal to 50. We will from equation by following steps and calculate the value of x which is equal to number we need to find.

According to problem,

⤀1/3 × x + 27 = 50

⤀1/3x + 27 = 50

⤀x + 27 = 50 ×3

⤀x + 27 = 150

⤀x = 150 - 27

⤀x = 150 - 27

⤀x = 123

∴ The number = 123

Let's verify it:

Substitute the value of x,

⤀1/3 × 123 + 27 = 50

⤀1/3 ×123 + 27 = 50

⤀123 + 27 = 50 ×3

⤀123 + 27 = 150

⤀ 150 = 150
