Question

What should be added to 5(3/7) to get 12?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$Let \: the \: number \: be \: x$

According to the question,

$5( \frac{3}{7} ) + x= 12$

$\frac{15}{7} + x = 12$

$\frac{15 + 7x}{7} = 12$

$15 + 7x = 84$

$7x = 69$

$x = \frac{69}{7}$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no be x which should be added to get 12.

5(3/7)+x=12

15/7+x=12

x=12-15/7

After taking LCM,We get

x=(84-15)/7

x=69/7

ANSWER x=69/7
