If two-fifths of three-eighths of one-sixth of a certain number is 52, what is 40% of the number?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 832.

Let the number be x

25×38×16×x{2\over5}\times{3\over8}\times{1\over6}\times x = 52

x = 52 × 40 = 2080

⇒ 40% of 2080 = 832
