(100 + x) = 3 (20 + x)

100 + x = 60 + 3x

100 = 60 + 2x

40 = 2x

20 = x

Add 20 to both numbers.

Sums are 120 and 40.

120/40 = 3/1

Pi is a fraction as circumference by diameter p by q form is a rational number then how is pi a irrational number?

A number is said to be rational if it can be expressed as a ratio of two [finite] integers [the second of which is non-zero]. Here, if pi is to be rational, both p and q must be integers. If p is an integer then q will be irrational and if q is an integer, p will be irrational. They can never both be rational and so the ratio definition cannot be satisfied.
