Question

if 44.44% of a number is added to itself,the sum becomes 2197 find the actual number?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1521

Step-by-step explanation:

we can form an equation

the actual number will be represented by (x)

44.44% * x + x = 2197

44.44% = 44.44/100 = 0.4444

0.4444x + x = 2197

1.4444x = 2197

x = 2197 / 1.4444

x = 1521.46...

to the nearest whole number = 1521

the actual number is 1521

we can test this :

0.4444 * 1521 + 1521 = 2196.9

to the nearest whole number

= 2197
