Question:

If 15% of 40 is greater than 25% of a number by 2 . Find number.

To find?

• missing number

Let :

The number be x

Equation formed:

$\dfrac{15}{1 00 } \times 40 = \dfrac{25x}{100} + 2$

how the equation is formed?

→As 15% of 40 is greater 25% of a number by 2 that's why we have added two with 25x/100

Step by step explanation:

$: \implies \dfrac{15}{1 00 } \times 40 = \dfrac{25x}{100} + 2$

$: \implies 3 \times 2 = \dfrac{25x}{100} + 2$

$: \implies 6 = \dfrac{25x}{100} + 2$

$: \implies \: 6 - 2 = \dfrac{25x}{100}$

$: \implies4 \times \dfrac{100}{25} = x$

$: \implies x = 4 \times 4$

$: \implies \: \blue{x = 16✓}$
