Question

x+(10% of x) = 3575
find x​

Answer 1

Answer:

x+(10% of x) = 3575

x + 10/100 × x = 3575

x + 0.1x = 3575

1.1x = 3575

x = 35750/11

x = 3250

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 3250

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of x is the same as (1/10)x. We can simplify to get our new equation:

x + (1/10)x = 3575

We combine like terms to get:

(11/10)x = 3575

We multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 11/10 (which is 10/11) to get:

x = 3250
