Step by step Explanation:

Given:

A number exceeds 25% of itself by 60

To find: The required number if exceeds 25% by itself.

Solution:

Let the number be X then,

Then the equation can be written as

x= 25% of x +60

⇒ x = $\frac{25}{x} +60$

⇒ $x = \frac{x}{4} + 60$

⇒ 4x = x + 240

⇒  4x -x =240

⇒  3x =240

⇒ x = 240 /3

⇒ x = 80

Hence x = 80.

Final answer:

A number exceeds 25% of itself by 60,then the required number is 80
