Answer 2

Answer: x = 19.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : x is increased by 50% = 20

To find : value of x

It is given in the question that x is increased by 50% to get 20

hence, we add x with 50% in order to find value of x.

x + 50/100 = 20

here x is the number to be found, increase by 50% is given in the question and 20 is the resulting sum of the numbers as given in the question.

x = 20 - 50/100

x = 20 - 1/2

x = 20 - 0.5 (as 1/2 = 0.5)

x = 19.5

Hence if 19.5 is increased by 50% it equals to 20. Thus value of x is 19.5

Answer : 19.5
