Answer 2

Concept Introduction:

A value or ratio stated as a part of 100 is known as a percentage in mathematics. Although the abbreviations "pct," "pct," and occasionally "pc" are also used, the percent symbol, " percent ", is frequently used to signify it. An amount that is a % is dimensionless and has no assigned measurement.

Solution:

We have to find the number which is $35$% less than $260$

The number is,

$260 - 260$ × $35/100$

$= 260 - 91$

$= 169$

Final Answer:

The final answer is $169$
