Please guys.
Can you assist me this question, I have exam today.
Two thirds of a certain number exceeds a half of the same number ten times. What is the number?
just write what they probably meant (though they said it poorly):
2/3 x = 1/2 x + 10
x = 60
doing what they actually said,
2/3 x = 10(1/2 x)
only works for x=0
