Answer 1

Answer:

7200 rupees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total amount,

7/9 of x=5600

x=5600*9/7

x=7200

Answer 2

Answer:

₹7200

Step-by-step explanation:

if 7/9 of the whole amount, then

x÷9×7 (definition of a fraction)

x÷9×7 = 5600 ==> x = 5600÷7×9 = ₹7200

5600 ÷ $\frac{7}{9}$ = 7200
