Question

The product of three numbers $X$, 25, and 26 is 15,600. Find the vale of $X$.

• A. 22
• B. 23
• C. 24
• D. 27

Answer 1

The correct option is C 24

Given ,
$X\times 25\times 26=15,600$

Step 1: Multiply 25 and 26 to reduce number of terms in the left side of the equation.
$\Rightarrow X\times 650=15,600$

Step 2: Divide both side by 650.
$\Rightarrow \frac{650X}{650}=\frac{15,600}{650}$

$\Rightarrow X=24$

Hence, the unkown number X is 24.
