$let \: the \: number \: be \: x. \\ 37.5\% \: of \: a \: number = 900 \\ \frac{37.5}{100} \times x = 900 \\ \frac{375}{100} \times x = 900 \\ x = \frac{900 \times 100}{375} \\ x = \frac{900 \times 4}{15} \\ x = 60 \times 4 \\ x = 240 \\ \\ 62.5 \% \: of \: 240 \\ = \frac{625}{1000} \times 240 \\ = \frac{625}{100} \times 24 \\ = \frac{25}{4} \times 24 \\ = 25 \times 6 \\ = 150$

Answer 2

Given:

37.5% of a number is 900

To Find:

62.5% of the number will be

Solution:

Let the number be x

We are given that 37.5% of a number is 900

So, $37.5\%x = 900$

$\frac{37.5}{100}x=900$

$37.5 x= 900 \times 100$

$x=\frac{90000}{37.5}$

x=2400

So, The number is 2400

62.5% of the number = $62.5\%(2400)=\frac{62.5}{100}(2400)=1500$

Hence 62.5% of the number will be 1500
