Answer: The required number is 0.7.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find a number such that 0.07 is one tenth of that number.

Let the required number be represented by x

Then, according to the given information, we have


0.07=(1)/(10)* x\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.07*10~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{applying cross-multiplication}]\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.7.

Thus, the required number is 0.7.
