a) 375 b) 400 c) 350 d)250
​

Answer 1

Answer:

b) 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Reducing 6 % = 100 - 6

= 94% = 376

= 376 ÷ 94

= 4

= 4 × 6

= 24

= 376 + 24

= 400

Answer 2

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original value.

then

6% of x=x-376

0.06x = x-376

x-0.06x = 376

0.94x = 376

x = 376/0.94

x= 400
