Solution
The correct option is C 180 Let the number be p. Then p – 70 % of p = 81 ⇒ p – 70/100 × p = 81 ⇒ p– 0.7p = 81 ⇒ 0.3p = 81 ⇒ p = 81/0.3 ⇒ p = 270 Now, we need to find 2p/3 = 2 × 270 / 3 = 2 × 90 = 180
माना कि संख्या p है। p का p – 70 % = 81 p – 70/100 × p = 81 ⇒ p– 0.7p = 81 0.3p = 81 p = 81/0.3 p = 270 अतः संख्या का दो-तिहाई 2p/3 = 2 × 270 / 3 = 2 × 90 = 180
