Let the no be x

A/Q

x +  \frac{1}{x}  =  \frac{13}{6}  \\  \frac{ {x}^{2}  + 1}{x}  =  \frac{13}{6}  \\ 6 {x}^{2}  + 6 = 13x \\ 6 {x}^{2} - 13x + 6 = 0 \\ 6 {x}^{2}  - (9 + 4)x + 6 = 0 \\ 6 {x}^{2}  - 9x - 4x + 6 = 0 \\ 3 {x} (2x - 3) - 2(2x - 3) = 0 \\ (3x - 2)(2x - 3) = 0 \\ so \\ 3x - 2 = 0 \\ x =  \frac{  2}{3}  \\ or \\ x =  \frac{3}{2}
