Question:

The difference between a number and its two-fifth is 510. What is 10% of that number?

 

Options:

12.75

85

204

None of these

Correct Answer:

85

Explanation:

Let the number be x 

So, according to the question

x - \(\frac{2 }{5 }\) of x = 510

\(\frac{3 }{5 }\) of x = 510

x = \(\frac{2550}{3 }\) 

x = 850

Thus, the number is 850

10% of the number = 85
