Question

The number which exceeds 20% of itself by 60. Then the number is​

Answer 1

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Number exceeds 25 percent of itself by 60. Number = 25 percent of number + 60.

Number exceeds 25 percent of itself by 60. Number = 25 percent of number + 60. So, 80 is the required number.

Answer 2

Given: The number exceeds $20$% of itself by$60$.

We have to find the number.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The number exceeds $20$% of itself by$60$.

Let assume the number be$'x'$.

Now,

$=>x=20\%ofx+60\\\\=>x=\frac{20}{100} x+60\\\\=>x=\frac{20x}{100} +60\\\\\\=>x=\frac{x}{5} +60\\\\=>5x=x+300\\=>5X-x=300\\=>4x=300\\\\=>x=\frac{300}{4}$

Solving the above equation further we get,

$=>x=75$

Hence, the number will be$75$.
