Let the fraction be N.Then, N / (13/14) - (13/14) x N = 3/65⇒ 14N/13 - 13N/14 = 3/65⇒ (196N - 169N)/182 = 3/65⇒ 27N/182 = 3/65∴ N = (3 x 182) / (27 x 65) = 14/45So, correct answer will be (13/14) x (14/45) = 13/45
Let the number be X Decreasing 2 from XX - 2 = 80 x (1/X)X^2 - 2X = 80X^2 -2x -80 = 0(X-10)(X+8) = 0x=10,-8X has two values, but among the given options X value should be 10
Let the length of lamppost = L mThen,first part = L/3and second part = (3/8) x L/3 = L/8 and third part = 6 m 50 cm = 6.50 mFirst part + second part + Third part = length of lamppost ⇒ L/3 + L/8 + 6.5 = L ⇒ L - L/3 - L/8 =6.5 ⇒ (24L - 8L - 3L)/24 = 6.5 ⇒ 13L/24 = 6.5 ∴ L = (65.x 24)/13 = 12 m
