Question

If a number is added to its 75% it gives 1750 find the number

Answer 1

Answer:

1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x + $\frac{75}{100}$ x = 1750

$\frac{4}{4}$x + $\frac{3}{4}$x  = 1750

1750 = $\frac{7}{4}$x

x = 1750 x $\frac{4}{7}$

  = 1000

Answer 2

Given,

A certain number such that when it is added to its 75%, it gives 1750.

To find,

The certain number.

Solution,

We can simply solve this mathematical problem using the following process:

Let us assume that the certain number is x.

Mathematically,

p% of a number A is calculated as:

(p/100)×A

{Statement-1}

Now, according to the question;

The value of 75% of the certain number

= (75/100)×x

= 3x/4

Now, according to the question;

The certain number is when added to its 75%, it gives the value = 1750

=> (the certain number) + (the value of 75% of the certain number) = 1750

=> x + 3x/4 = 1750

=> 4x + 3x = 1750×4 = 7000

=> 7x = 7000

=> x = 1000

Hence, the certain number is 1000.
