Question

51℅ of a number is 714.what is 28℅ of that number​

Answer 1

28 % of the number is 392.

Given: 51% of x is 714.

To Find: 28 % of the number.

Solution:

Let the number be ‘x’.

It is said that 51% of x is 714

So, this can be represented as;

      ( 51 x x ) / 100 = 714

       X  =  ( 714 x 100 ) / 51

       X  =   1400

So, the number is 1400

Now, we are required to find 28% of the number.

Similarly, we can say that;

       ( 28 x 1400 ) /100

  =   39200 / 100

  =   392

Hence, 28 % of the number is 392.
