Sum of dividend

Suppose X is divided separately into 2.63 and 1.40. The results of the individual divisions are added to give a result less than X. What is X?

Correct answer:

x₀ =  462/43 = 10 ³²⁄₄₃

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} X/2.64+X/1.40<X \\ \frac{505}{462}X<X \\ \frac{43}{462}X<0 \\ X<\frac{462}{43} \\ {x}_0=462/43=\frac{462}{43}=10\frac{32}{43}=10.7442 \end{gathered}$$
