Question

what nur:ber should be subtracted from 5 to get 18/13.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given :-

• A number is subtracted from 5 to get 18/13.

To Find :-

• The number which is going to be subtracted.

Solution :-

Let that number be x.

Therefore, According to the question,

• 5 - x = 18/13
• x = 5 - 18/13 [Taking L.C.M.]
• x = {5 × 13 - 18}/ 13
• x = {65 - 18}/13
• x = 47/13

Answer :-

• The number which is going to be subtracted ( x ) is 47/13.

Answer 2

47/13

Let the number which is going to

subtract be "x"

SO,

5-x=18/13

x= 18/13 - 5

here here is no denominator of 5 so we will keep it as 5/1

SO,

x=18/13 - 5/1

L.C.M of 13 & 1 = 13

Now , 5*13=65 & 1*13=13

so,

x=18/13-65/13

x=18-65/13

x=47/13

Hope ,
