Answer:

The number is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number. We can set up an equation:

2(n+20)=5n-2

Distribute the left side

2n+40=5n-2

Move like terms to one side. Note that the sign flips when we move a term from one side to the other.

40+2=5n-2n

42=3n

Divide both sides by 3

n=14

Answer:

Neither of them has partitioned the values correctly. The answer to the sum 3568 × 39610 =141 328 480.

They tried the partition method but did not partitioned it correctly.

3568 = 3000+500+60+8

39610 = 30000+9000+600+10

Now multiply each value of 3568 with the values of 39610. Like:

3000 * 30000

3000 * 9000

3000 * 600

3000 * 8

and so on....
