Answer:
[tex]\boxed{x = 15}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x
Condition:
[tex]2x - \frac{2}{3} x = 20[/tex]
Multiplying 3 to both sides
=> 3(2x) - 2x = 3(20)
=> 6x - 2x = 60
=> 4x = 60
Dividing both sides by 4
=> x = 15
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be that number.
2/3 of x subtracted from twice of x is 20.
2x - 2/3x = 20
Solve for x.
Combine like terms.
4/3x = 20
Multiply both sides by 3/4
x = 60/4
x = 15
The number is 15.
