Question

3/5 of a number is 30 whats the number

Answer 1

50

Explanation:

Let the number be X

⅗X = 30

X = 30 × 5/3

X = 50

Answer 2

50

Explanation:

We could call this number x in our equation. First set the equation to this

`(3x)/(5) = 30`

Multiply on both sides to get rid of 5

now it looks like this...

`3x = 150`

divide 150 by 3 and you get this

x=50
