A fourth of a third of two fifths is a thirtieth.
(1 x 1 x 2) / (4 x 3 x 5) = 2 / 60 = 1 / 30
A thirtieth of a number () is fifteen, the number is four hundred and fifty.
= 15 / (1 / 30) = 15 x 30 = 450
forty percent of four hundred and fifty is one hundred and eighty.
(450 / 100) x 40 = 180
Answer:
The number is 450
Step-by-step explanation:
One fourth is 1/4,
One third is 1/3
and two fifths is 2/5
let the number be x.
So,
One fourth of one third of two fifths of x is 15.
that is,
1/4 * 1/3 * 2/5 * x = 15
2/4*3*5* x = 15
2/60 * x = 15
1/30 * x = 15
1 * x = 15*30
x = 450
Therefore the number is 450
