Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be X.

So 2/3 of a number would be (2/3)x and 1/5 of the same number would be (1/5)x.  Therefore, (2/3)x+(1/5)x=39.  Next, you combine like terms by converting the fractions: (10/15)x+(3/15)x=39.  Now, you add the fractions.  (13/15)x=39.  Lastly you divide both sides by 13/15 or multiply both sides by 15/13.  x=45.  That number would be 45.  

<u>If you would like to check</u>, you would do 2/3(45) or 90/3 which is 30 and do 1/5(45) or 45/5 which is 9.  30+9=39

Complementary angles add up to 90 (there should be a right angle in the diagram)

x+20+x+10 needs to equal 90 where x=30

Left angle is measured 30+20=50 degrees

Angle on the right is measured 30+10=40 degrees
