Let n represent the number.
-13×(n -60) = n +(-59)
-13n +780 = n -59
839 = 14n
839/14 = n = 59 13/14
The number is 59 13/14.
_____
Check
The difference between the number and 60 is
59 13/14 -60 = -1/14
-13 times that value is
-13*(-1/14) = 13/14
Compare that to the number plus -59
59 13/14 -59 = 13/14 . . . . . the same value, as required.
