Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is 95.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number that is multiplied be x

therefore according to the question,

$x \times 4 = 4x$

then 20 is subtracted from the result and we get the answer 360.4

according to the question,

$4x - 20 = 360.4 \\ 4x = 360.4 + 20 \\ 4x = 380.4 \\ x = \frac{380.4}{4} \\ x = 95.1$

therefore, the number is 95.1
