Question

The sum of three decimals is 496.28. Two decimals are 238.94 and 110.09. Find the third decimal

Answer 1

Answer:

third number=147.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

sum of three decimals=496.28

first no.=238.94

second no.=110.09

let third no.=x

then,

496.28=238.94+110.09+x

496.28=349.28+x

x=496.28-349.03

x=147.25

                              ∴x(third number)=147.25

Answer 2

Given:

The sum of three decimals is 496.28. Out of the three decimals, the two decimals are 238.94 and 110.09.

To find:

The third decimal.

Solution:

As given, the two decimals are 238.94 and 110.09. Let,

The first decimal = 238.94,

The second decimal = 110.09.

and

The third decimal = x

So, according to the question,

The sum of three decimals = 496.28.

So, we have

$238.94 + 110.09 + x = 496.28$

$349.03 + x = 496.28$

$x = 496.28 - 349.03$

$x = 147.25$

Hence, the third decimal is 147.25.
