Question

find the value of x in the following 25% of 240=12 1/2% of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of x is 480.

Step-by-step-explanation:

We have given that,

$\displaystyle{\sf\:25\:\%\:of\:240\:=\:12\:\dfrac{1}{2}\:\%\:of\:x}$

We have to find the value of x.

Now,

$\displaystyle{\sf\:25\:\%\:of\:240\:=\:12\:\dfrac{1}{2}\:\%\:of\:x}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\sf\:25\:\%\:\times\:240\:=\:12\:\dfrac{1}{2}\:\%\:\times\:x}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\sf\:\dfrac{25}{10\cancel{0}}\:\times\:24\cancel{0}\:=\:\dfrac{12\:\times\:2\:+\:1}{2\:\times\:100}\:\times\:x}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\sf\:\dfrac{25\:\times\:24}{10}\:=\:\dfrac{25}{2\:\times\:100}\:\times\:x}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\sf\:x\:=\:\dfrac{\cancel{25}\:\times\:24\:\times\:2\:\times\:\cancel{100}}{\cancel{10}\:\times\:\cancel{25}}}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\sf\:x\:=\:24\:\times\:2\:\times\:10}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\sf\:x\:=\:48\:\times\:10}$

$\displaystyle{\implies\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf\:x\:=\:480\:}}}}$

∴ The value of x is 480.
