If ⅞ of the share capital of a certain company is equal to 44800, what is the total share capital of the company

Answer 1

To find the total share capital of the company, you need to divide 44800 by the fraction 7/8.

The fraction 7/8 represents 7 parts out of a whole, so if 7/8 is equal to 44800, then 1 part is equal to 44800 divided by 7.

So, 1 part is equal to 44800/7 = 6400.

To find the total share capital of the company, you need to multiply this value by the total number of parts, which is 8.

Thus, the total share capital of the company is 6400 x 8 = 51200.
