IMPORTANT POINTS

1. Simple Equations : A mathematical statement, which states that two expressions are equal, is called simple equation.
2. Properties of Simple Equation :
(i) If same quantity is added to both the sides of simple equation, the sums are equal.
For Example :
x = 6 ⇒ x + a = 6 + a [Adding a on both the sides]
(ii) If same quantity is subtracted from both the sides of simple equation, the remainders are equal.
For Example :
x = 6 ⇒ x-a = 6 – a [Subtracting a on both the sides]
(iii) If both the sides of an equation are multiplied by the same quantity, the products are equal.
For Example :
x = 6 ⇒ a x x = a x 6 i.e. ax = 6a [Multiplying both the sides by a]
(iv) If both the sides of simple equation are divided by the same quantity, the quotients are equal.
For Example :
x = 6 ⇒ \(\frac { x }{ a }\) = \(\frac { 6 }{ a }\) [Dividing both the sides by a]

Simple (Linear) Equations Exercise 22D – Selina Concise Mathematics Class 6 ICSE Solutions

Question 1.
A number increased by 17 becomes 54. Find the number.
Solution:
Let the required number = x
∴ According to the sum :
x+17 = 54
⇒ x = 54-17
⇒ x = 37
Required number = 37

Question 2.
A number decreased by 8 equals 26, find the number.
Solution:
Let required number = A
∴According to the sum :
x – 8 = 26
⇒A = 26 + 8
⇒A = 34
∴Required number = 34

Question 3.

Solution:

Question 4.
Two-fifths of a number subtracted from three-fourths of it gives 56, find the number.
Solution:

Question 5.
A number is increased by 12 and the new number obtained is multiplied by 5. If the resulting number is 95, find the original number.
Solution:

Question 6.

(i) the expression for larger number.
(if) the larger number, if the sum of these numbers is 71.
Solution:

Question 18.
The difference between two numbers is 23. Taking the larger number as x, find:
(i) the expression for smaller number.
(ii) the smaller number, if the sum of these two numbers is 91.
Solution:

Question 19.
Find three consecutive integers such that their sum is 78.
Solution:
Sum of three consecutive numbers = 78
Let first number = x
Then second number = x + 1
and third number = x + 2
Then x + x+1+x + 2 = 78
⇒ 3x + 3 = 78
⇒ 3x = 78 – 3 = 75
⇒ x = \(\frac { 75 }{ 3 }\) =25
∴First number=25
Second number = 25 + 1 = 26
and third number = 26 + 1 = 27
Then the three required numbers are 25, 26,27

Question 20.
The sum of three consecutive numbers is 54. Taking the middle number as x, find:
(i) expression for the smallest number and the largest number.
(ii) the three numbers.
Solution:
Sum of three consecutive numbers = 54
Middle number = x
(i) The first number = x – 1
and third number = x + 1
(ii) ∴x + x-1+x+1 = 54
⇒ 3x = 54
⇒ x= \(\frac { 54 }{ 3 }\) = 18
∴First number =18-1 = 17
and third number =18 + 1 = 19
∴Three required numbers are 17, 18,19
