Answer 2

$\large\blue{\bigstar{\purple{\bold{AnsweR}}}}$

★ Given that ,

• 75 % of the original number added to 75 gives the number itself.

★ To Find ,

• The original number.

★ Considering ,

• Let the original number be 'x'

★ Solution ,

᠉According to the question ,

➙ $\large\boxed{\bf{\frac{75}{100}}\times{x + 75=x}}$

➙ 75 = x - 0.75x

➙ 75 = 0.25x

➙ x = $\large\bf{\frac{75}{0.25}}$

➙ x = $\large\bf{\frac{7500}{25}}$

➙ x = 300

$\therefore$ The original number is 300.

★ Verifying ,

➙ $\large\boxed{\bf{\frac{75}{100}}\times{300 + 75 = 300}}$

➙ 225 + 75 = 300

➙ 300 = 300

➙ LHS = RHS

➙ hence verified ✔
