Answer 2

Answer: the answer is 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required number be x

Now, according to question-

3/5(x)+2/3(x) = 16+x

Or 3x/5+2x/3 = 16+x Or 3x(3)+2x(5)/15=

16+x

Or 9x+10x/15×15 =15(16+x)

(Multiplying 15 both sides)

Or 9x+10x=240+15x

Or 9x+10x-15x = 240

Or 4x = 240

Or x = 240/4

Therefore x= 60

Therefore the required number is 60
