Question

two thard of a number is greater than one third of the number by 3 . find the number

Answer 1

Let the number be x.

then,

Two third of x = $\frac{2}{3} x$

One third of x = $\frac{1}{3} x$

Now, According to question,

$\frac{1}{3} x + 3 = \frac{2}{3} x \\ \frac{1x + 9}{3} = \frac{2x}{3} \\ x + 9 = 2x \\ x - 2x = - 9 \\ - x = - 9 \\ x = 9$

Number is 9.
