35.83 should be the correct answer.
1. 43/120%
2. 120%=1.2
3. 43/1.2
4. 43/1.2=35.83(and the 3 is repeating)
5. Answer= 35.83
Answer:
The correct option is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that 120% of a number is 43.
Let the number be x.
\(x\times \frac{120}{100}=43\)
\(x\times \frac{12}{10}=43\)
Multiply both sides by 10.
\(x\times 12=43\times 10\)
\(12x=430\)
Divide both sides by 12.
\(x=\frac{430}{12}\)
\(x=35.8333333333\)
\(x\approx 35.83\)
The required number is 35.83. Therefore the correct option is 4.
