Hamid has gain weight he now weighs 88kg which is 10% higher than a month how much did Hamid weigh a month ago

Answer 1

To find out how much Hamid weighed a month ago, we need to find the weight that is 10% less than his current weight.

Let x be Hamid's weight a month ago.

According to the problem, his current weight (88kg) is 10% higher than his weight a month ago.

So, 10% of x should be added to x to get his current weight.

Mathematically, this can be represented as:

x + 0.10x = 88

Simplifying the equation, we combine like terms:

1.10x = 88

Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 1.10:

x = 88 / 1.10

Performing the division:

x = 80

Therefore, Hamid weighed 80kg a month ago.
