Answer 1

Answer:

806

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

$(58x \div 100) - (39x - \div 100) = 247$

$0.58x - 0.39x = 247$

$0.19x=247$

$x = 247 \div 0.19 = 1300$

62% of 1300 =

$62 \div 100 \times 1300 = 806$

Hence, Answer is 806.

Answer 2

Answer :

• 806 is 62% of that number.

Given :

• The difference between 58% of a number and 39% of the same number is 247

To find :

• What is 62% of that number

Solution :

• Let the other number be x

Given, the difference between 58% of a number and 39% of the same number is 247 so,

• (58 - 39)% of x = 247

According to question,

➞ (58 - 39)% of x = 247

➞ x (19/100)= 247

➞ x = 247 × 100/19

➞ x = 1300

Now finding the other number of 62%

➞ 62% of 1300

➞ 1300 × 62/100

➞ 806

Hence , 806 is 62% of that number.
