Question

Find a number which when increased by 10% becomes 55​

Answer 1

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

According to the question,

Increase in 10% of the number = 10/100(x) = x/10 (-1)

Given relation in question means,

x+x/10 = 55

On taking LCM we have,

(10x+x)/10 = 55

11x = 55(10)

11x = 550

x = 550/11

x = 50

Therefore the required number is 50.
