Answer:

Explanation:

Let's call the number we're trying to find "x".

We know that:
25% of x is 60 (0.25x = 60)
90% of x is 216 (0.9x = 216)

We can use the first equation to solve for x:
x = 60 / 0.25 = 240

Now we can use this value of x to find 65% of it:
65% of x = 0.65 * 240 = 156

So, 65% of that number is 156.
