Question 287982
Hello, 
Let's have "x" be the number so we can set up the following equation as:
6/7(x)-2=4/5(x) Multiply both sides by 35 to get:
30x-70=28x Subtract 30x from both sides to get:
-70=-2x Divide both sides by -2 to get:
x=35
Make sense?
(Hint: The word "of" in math usually means "multiply" or "times")
