Answer 2

Given,

26% of a number is 65

To find,

The number

Solution,

Let us assume that the number is A

Then we can say that

26% of A = 65

or, A * 26/100 = 65

or, A = 65 * 100 / 26

or A = 5 * 100 / 2 ( after dividing numerator and denominator by 13)

or A = 5 * 50 = 250 ( after dividing numerator and denominator by 2)

Hence, if 26 % of a number is 65, the number is 250.
