Question

4/9 of a certain number is 65 what is the number

Answer 1

To find the number, we can set up an equation.

We know that 4/9 of the number is equal to 65. So we can write it as:

4/9 * x = 65

To solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 9/4:

(4/9 * x) * (9/4) = 65 * (9/4)

Simplifying, we get:

x = 65 * (9/4)

Evaluating the expression, we find that x is equal to 146.25.

Therefore, the number is 146.25.
