Question

The difference between 87% and 71% of a number is 448. What is 59% of that number ?

Answer 1

Answer:

1652

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose the number is x

now from questions,

x × 87% - x × 71% = 448

87x / 100 - 71x /100 = 448

16x/100 = 448

x = 448×100/16

then,

x × 59% = (448×100/16) × 59/100

= 448×59/16 = 1652
