Question

If 45% of a number is 63 and 35% of the same number is 49, find 80% of that number.

Answer 1

Explanation:

1) Let the number be y

45%of y=63

45y/100=63

Y=6300/45

Y=140

So 80%of a number =80y/100

=80×140/100

=112.

Let the number be y

35%of y=49

35y/100=49

Y=4900/35

Y=140

So 80%of a number =80y/100

=80×140/100

=112.
