Question

if the difference between 62%of a number and 3/5th of that number 36. what is the number

Answer 1

Let the number is x
So, according to the question
62% of x - (3/5)th of x =36
Or,(62/100)x - (3/5)x =36
Or, {(62-60)/100}x =36
Or, (2/100)x=36
Or, x= 36×50
Or,x=1800


So the number is 1800

Answer 2

let the number be x
so,
(62% of x) - (3/5 of x) = 36
62/100x - 3/5x = 36
(62x - 60x) / 100 = 36
2x/100 = 36
x/50 = 36
x = 36 * 50
x = 1800
so., the number is 1800
hope it helps....!!!
