Question

Find the value of $(27.36÷0.9)+(24.48÷0.8)$

• A. 64
• B. 67
• C. 61
• D. 65

Answer 1

The correct option is C

61

$27.36÷0.9=\frac{27.36}{0.9}$

Multiplying both numerator and denominator by 10; we have

$=\frac{27.36\times 10}{0.9\times 10}=\frac{273.6}{9}=30.4\dots \left(1\right)$

$24.48÷0.8=\frac{24.48}{0.8}$

Multiplying both numerator and denominator by 10

$=\frac{24.48\times 10}{0.8\times 10}=\frac{244.8}{8}=30.6\dots \left(2\right)$

Adding (1) & (2); we have

$\Rightarrow 30.4+30.6=61.0$
