    				| 1. | Find the number whose fifth part increased by 5 is equal to its fourth part diminished by 5. | 
| Answer» Let the numbers be x According to the question \(\frac{1}{5}\text{x}+5=\frac{1}{4}\text{x}-5\) Taking LCM of 5 and 1 on LHS = 5 and 4 and 1 on RHS = 1 \(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{5}\text{x}-\frac{1}{4}\text{x}=-10\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{4\text{x-5x}}{20}=-10\) \(\Rightarrow \text{x}=200\) So the number 200 | |
