Question

If $\frac{2}{3}$ of a number is $10$, then what is $1.75$ times of that number ?

Answer 1

Step $1$: Find the number whose $\frac{2}{3}$ is$10$.

Let us assume the number is $N$.

Given: $\frac{2}{3}$ of the number is $10$.

thus,

$$\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{3}\times N=10 \\ \Rightarrow N=\frac{30}{2} \\ \Rightarrow N=15 \end{gathered}$$

Step $2$: Find $1.75$ times of $15$.

$1.75$ times of $15$$=1.75\times 15$

$1.75$ times of $15$ $=26.25$

Hence, $1.75$ times of the required number is $26.25$.
