x = 124

Answer 2

The number is 124

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

We are given that A number increased by 25 % gives 155

Increased number = $x+25\%x$

                              =$x+\frac{25}{100}x$

                              =$\frac{125}{100}x$

                              =$1.25x$

So, ATQ

$1.25x = 155\\x=\frac{155}{1.25}\\x=124$

Hence The number is 124
