Answer:

option d

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

40% of x = 0.40x

Increased by 40% = 28

That is ,

           x + 0.40x = 28

               1.40x = 28

                   [tex]x = \frac{28}{1.40}\\[/tex]

                  [tex]x = \frac{28 \times 100}{1.40 \times 100 } = \frac{28 \times 100}{140} =\frac{4 \times 100}{20} = 4 \times 5 = 20[/tex]

Therefore, the number is 20
