Question

In what ratio is a number increased if it is increased by 1/10 of itself​

Answer 1

Answer:

10:11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the number is x.

So, if it is increased by 1/10th of itself, the  the final number will become (x+x/10) = 1.1x.

Now, we have to calculate the ratio in which the number x is increased.

Hence, the ratio is x: 1.1x

Now, cancelling x from both sides and then multiplying 10 with both the sides we get, 10:11.

Therefore, 10:11 is the ratio in which the number is increased.(Answer)

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number be x

If it is increased by 1/10, the final number will be (x+x/10) = 1.1x

Now, calculating the ratio in which the number x

is increased.

Hence,

the ratio is x:1.1x

Now, cancel x from both sides and then if increased by 1/10 = ?:1.1

10:11 is answer...
