Question

If the difference between a number and its two-fifth is 60, then the number is:

A.

100

B.

125

C.

75

D.

105

Correct option is A

Given:

The difference between a number and its two-fifth is 60.

Solution:

Let the number be x.

two-fifth of the number as 25\frac{2}{5} x.

x - 25\frac{2}{5}​x = 60

35\frac{3}{5}​x = 60​​

x = 60×5360 \times\frac{5}{3}

x = 20 ×\times​ 5

x = 100

Therefore, the number is 100.

Option (A) is right.
