B) 160
C) 100
D) 120

Answer 1

HELLO!!!

Here's The Answer :

☆☆☆☆☆☆

Let the number be x.


According To The Question!


35 % of x = (50% of x ) - 24

35 /100 × x = ( 50 /100 × x ) - 24

7x / 20 = 1x /2 - 24

7x = [ 1x /2 - 24 ] × 20

7x = 20x /2 - 480

7x = 10 x - 480

7x - 10x = -480

-3x = -480

x = -480 /(-3)

x = 480 /3

x = 160

So, your answer is option number ( B ) 160.
