b) 12
d) 33
a) 5
C) 28​

Answer 1

Answer:

the number= 12/15 * 100= 80

35% of 80= 35/100 * 80=28

Answer 2

Answer:

C) 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

Hence, 15% of x = 12

         ⇒ 15x = 1200

         ⇒  x = 1200 / 15

         ⇒  x = 80

Now,

              35% of x

         =   35% of 80

         =   35/100 × 80

         =    28

Hence, the answer is option C)
