Respuesta :
16% of the number is 73.6
Explanation:
Let x be the number
According to the question:
[tex]\frac{5}{100} X x = 23\\\\x = \frac{2300}{5} \\\\x = 460[/tex]
The number is 460.
1% of the same number is 4.6
Proof-
[tex]\frac{1}{100} X 460 = 4.6[/tex]
16% of the number = ?
[tex]\frac{16}{100} X 460 = 73.6[/tex]
Therefore, 16% of the number is 73.6
The 16% of 460 is 73.60 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have , 5% of a number is 23 ,1% of the same number is 4.6 . We need to find the number . Let's find out:
Let the number x so according to question , 5% of a number is 23 i.e.
⇒ [tex]\frac{Number(5)}{100}=23[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{x(5)}{100} = 23[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{x}{20} = 23[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{x}{20} (20)= 23(20)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x= 23(20)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x= 460[/tex]
Also , 16% of x is :
⇒ [tex]\frac{460(16)}{100}=73.6[/tex]
Therefore , The 16% of 460 is 73.60 .
