Question

. Reenu reduced her weight by 15%. If now she weighs 52.7 kg, what was her earlier weight?​

Answer 1

Answer:62KG

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the earlier weight of Renu was x kg.

Since Renu reduced 15% of her earlier weight,her reduced weight is 52.7 kg.

=> x - 15% of x = 52.7

=> x - x(15/100) = 52.7

=> x - 3x/20 = 52.7

=> (20x - 3x)/20 = 52.7

=> 17x = 52.7 × 20

=> 17x = 1054

=> x = 1054/17

=> x = 62
