A quantity, its 2/3, its 1/2 ,and its 1/7 , added together, become 9. What is the quantity? 
ASSUME THE QUANTITY AS X..AND PROCEED AS IF X IS A KNOWN NUMBER LIKE 5 OR 4 OR 10...OR SOME NUMBER.

A quantity, its 2/3 = X*2/3=2X/3

 its 1/2 = X*/2=X/2 

,and its 1/7 =X*1/7=X/7
, added together..WE GET...2X/3 + X/2 + +X/7 = (2*14+ 1*21 +1*6 )X/42=55X/42= 9

X=42*9/55=378/55..IS THE ANSWER
