5/8 of a number is 200. What is 7/10 of the number ?

Sagot :

Answer:

224

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown number.

(5÷8)x = 200

Then

x = (8×200) ÷ 5

  = 1600 ÷ 5

  =320

……………………………

(7/10)x = (7/10)×320

           = (7×320) ÷ 10

           = 224

Answer:

= 224

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!, here is how we solve the problem;

To begin, the question wants us to determine

[tex] \frac{7}{10} [/tex]

of the number x (unknown).

[tex] \frac{5}{8} = 200 \\ \frac{8}{8} = x \\ ( \frac{ \frac{8}{8} \times 200 }{ \frac{5}{8} } ) \\ = \frac{8}{8} \times 200 \times \frac{8}{5} \\ = 320 \\ x = 320[/tex]

We have found our x = 320

Lets now determine

[tex] \frac{7}{10} [/tex]

Which is given by;

[tex]( \frac{7}{10} \times 320 \\ = 224[/tex]

[tex] \frac{7}{10} [/tex]

of the number is therefore 224.

= 224 <<<<<< Ans

I hope this helps.

Have a nice studies.
