Question

If 65% of a number is 1,105, what is 82% of the same number?

Answer 1

Answer

1394

Explanation

Let $x$ be the number

Since 65% of the number is 1105 and $x$ is the number, 65%$x$ = 1105. Before solving for $x$, we are going to convert 65% to decimal by dividing it by 100%:

65% = $\frac{65}{100} =0.65$

Now we can rewrite our equation and solve for $x$:

$0.65x=1105$

$x=\frac{1105}{0.65}$

$x=1700$

Now that we have our number, the only thing left is find the 82% of 1700:

82% = $\frac{82}{100} =0.82$

$0.82*1700=1394$

We can conclude that the 82% of the number is 1394
