Question

Find the whole quantity if 15% of it is 105.

• A. 500
• B. 600
• C. 700
• D. 800

Answer 1

The correct option is C 700

15% of quantity is 105
$\Rightarrow$ 1% = $\frac{105}{15}$

$\Rightarrow$ 100% = $\frac{105}{15}$$\times$ 100
= 700
100% is nothing but whole quantity,
Hence whole quantity is 700
