Two-fifth of a number is 23.2 find the number

Answer 1

Let's call the number "x".

We know that two-fifth of the number is 23.2:

2/5 x = 23.2

To solve for x, we can isolate it by multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of 2/5, which is 5/2:

x = 23.2 × 5/2

Simplifying the right side:

x = 58

Therefore, the number is 58.
