Question

a child has certain amount of candies if he ate 35%of them and 13 are remaining find the number of candies that he had​

Answer 1

Answer: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m be the number of candies. The child ate 35% of the candies. So the remaining is (100-35) percent or 65%

Given the remaining number of candies is 13

so 65% of m is 13

⇒(65/100)m = 13

m=13x100/65 = 20
