      ATQ, Let's denote the unknown number as ‘x’ The difference between a number and its three-fifths is given as 50. Mathematically, this can be expressed as: x – (3/5)x = 50 Now, combine like terms: (2/5)x = 50 To isolate ‘ x’ , multiply both sides of the equation by 5/2​: x = 50 × (5/2) x = 125
