If (200/3)% of 75% of 1/8th of a certain number is 179, then find the (100/3)% of 3/4th of that number.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 716.
Let the number = x
(200/3)% of 75% of 1/8 of the number is 179:
⇒ (2/3) × (75/100) × (1/8) × x = 179
⇒ (2/3) × (3/4) × (1/8) × x = 179
⇒ x = 179 × 16
(100/3)% of 3/4 of that number is:
⇒ 100/300 × 3/4 × 179 × 16
⇒ 1/3 × 3/4 × 179 × 16
⇒ 1/3 × 3 × 179 × 4
⇒ 179 × 4 = 716
