Question

When a no. is increased by 24 it becomes 110% of itself what is the no?

Answer 1

Hey!!

Let us take the number as ' x '

We increase the number by 24

It becomes ' x + 24 '

This becomes 110% of it self

= ( 110 / 100 ) x

x + 24 = 110x / 100

100x + 2400 = 110x

2400 = 10x

x = 240

The number is 240
