    Question

    One-sixth of a number exceeds its one-ninth by 100, the number is:

    A.

    3600

    B.

    1800

    C.

    180

    D.

    360

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    One-sixth of a number exceeds its one-ninth by 100

    Solution:

    Let the number be x

    According to the question,

    x6x9\frac{x}6 - \frac{x}9​ = 100

    => (3x2x)18\frac{(3x - 2x)}{18}​ = 100

    => x18\frac{x}{18}​ = 100

    => x = 1800

    Thus, the number is 1800.
