If 2 3/8 of a number is 3, what is 1/35 of that number?
A1 199/665
B2 201/664
C199/667
D191/667
Answer:
A. 1 199/665
Read Explanation:
Let the number be N. Then it is given that 2 3/8 x N = 3.
2 3/8 = 19/8
19/8 x N = 3
N =(3 x 8)/19= 24/19
We have to find out 1 1/35 of that number
= 1 1/35 x N = 36/35 x 24/19 = 864/665 = 1 199/665
