Answer:

180 turns

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Vi= 240 volts

Vo= 960volts

Ns= 720 turns

Required

The amount of Primary turns Np

The expression relating voltage and turns in a transformer is given as

Np/Ns= Vi/Vo

substitute

Np/720= 240/960

cross multiply

720*240= Np*960

172800= Np*960

Np= 172800/960

Np= 180

Hence the primary turns is 180 turns
