27% of 50
2. What number when increased by 15% becomes 299

Answer 1

Answer:

1) 13.5

2) 260

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (27/100) × 50 = 13.5
2. 299 ÷ 1.15 = 260

260 + {(15/100) × 260} = 260 + 39 = 299

Answer 2

ANSWER 1)

$27\% \: of \: 50 \\ \frac{27}{100} \times 50 \\ 13.5 \: answer$

ANSWER 2)

$let \: number \: be \: x \\ according \: to \: question \\ x + 15\% \times x = 299 \\ x + \frac{15x}{100} = 299 \\ \frac{100x + 15x}{100} = 299 \\ \frac{115x}{100} = 299$

$x = \frac{299 \times 100}{115} \\ x = \frac{29900}{115} \\ x = 260 \: \: answer$
