A number when increased by 50%, gives a 2880, the number is:

Correct option is B

Given:

The number increases by 50% to give 2880.

Solution:

x + 50%  of  x = 2880

x + $$\frac{50}{100} \times$$​ x = 2880

x + $$\frac{x}{2}$$​ = 2880

​$$\frac{3x}{2}$$​ = 2880

3x = 5760

x = $$\frac{5760}{3}$$​ = 1920
