    Question

    A number when increased by 40 %', gives 3780. The number is:

    A.

    5400

    B.

    8100

    C.

    1350

    D.

    2700

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    The number increased by 40% gives 3780.

    Solution:
    Let the number be x.
    The equation for the increase by 40% is:

    x + 40% of x = 3780

    x + 40100×\frac{40}{100} \times​ x = 3780

    x (1+40100)=\left( 1 + \frac{40}{100} \right) = ​3780

    x ×\times ​1.4 = 3780

    x =37801.4=27= \frac{3780}{1.4} = 27​00

    So, the number is 2700.
