Answer 2

Heya,

It is given that "3.5% of amount is 5425"

So to find the total amount,

Let's assume the total amount as "Y"

According to the given question,

3.5/100 × Y = 5425

3.5Y = 5425× 100

3.5Y = 542500

Y = 542500/3.5

Y = 542500/3.5 × 10/10

Y = 5425000/35

Y = 1085000/7

Y = 155000

Hence,

The total amount = Rs.1,55,000

Hope my answer helps you :)
