Question

2 2/3 of what number is 6 1/7

Answer 1

Answer:

number = 2 17/56

Step-by-step explanation:

$2\frac{2}{3} \ of what \ number \ is \ 6\frac{1}{7}$

Let the number is x

∴ $2\frac{2}{3} * x = 6 \frac{1}{7} \\\frac{8}{3} x = \frac{43}{7}$

Multiply both sides by 3/8

$\frac{3}{8} *\frac{8}{3} x = \frac{3}{8}* \frac{43}{7}\\x=\frac{3*43}{8*7}=\frac{129}{56} = \frac{112+17}{56}= 2 \frac{17}{56}$
