If $66\frac{2}{3}\%$ of 75% of one-eighth of a certain number is 179, then $33\frac{1}{3}\%$ of three-fourth of that number is:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Let the number be N
ATQ,
66.66% × 75% × \(\frac{1}{8}\) × (x) = 179
N × \(\frac{2}{3}\) × \(\frac{3}{4}\) × \(\frac{1}{8}\) = 179
N = 179 × 16
Now , 33 % of \(\frac{3}{4}\) of 179 × 16
= 179 × 16 × \(\frac{3}{4}\) × \(\frac{1}{3}\)
= 716
So , number is 716
