    A.

    5200

    B.

    2600

    C.

    3900

    D.

    3328

    Correct option is A

    Given:
    35% of a number is 416 more than 27% of the same number.
    Formula:
    Percentage of a number: ​percent100×number\frac{\text{percent}}{100} \times \text{number}​​
    Solution:

    ​Equation: 35% of x - 27% of x = 416.
    Let the number be 'x'.

    35% of x = 0.35x

    27% of x = 0.27x

    Given: 0.35x = 0.27x + 416

    Subtract 0.27x from both sides:
    0.35x - 0.27x = 416
    0.08x = 416
    Solve for x:
    Answer: 5200
