Question

The sum of 5 and third part of a number
is 25. What is the number?​

Answer 1

Consider x be the unknown number.

Third part of x = $\frac{1}{3}x$

According to the question,

$5+\frac{x}{3}=25$

Solve this equation for x as follows:

  $\frac{15+x}{3}=25$

$15+x=75$                     (Multiply both sides by 3)

       $x=75-15$             (Subtract 15 on both sides)

       $x=60$

Therefore, the required number would be 60.

Answer 2

Answer:

thus the required value of x=60
