Answer 1

Given:

• When 36 added 13 times a number, it became 31 of the number.

To Find:

• The number.

Explanation:

Here first we will assume the number as x and then we will do 13 times x, that means 13 multiplied by x and after that we will add or sum 36 to 13 times. After that know it is equal to 31 of the number which means 31 of x. Thus by forming an adequate equation and doing required calculations we will find the value of x which is equal to the number.

Let the number be x.

According to question,

• 13x + 36 = 31x
• 36 = 31x - 13x
• 36 = 18x
• x = 36/18
• x = 2

Therefore, the required number is 2
