Question 60

What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation?
62% of 2200 - 24% of (?) = 932

Solution

Let's assume 'y' in place of the question mark.

62% of 2200 - 24% of y = 932

$$\frac{62}{100}\times2200-\frac{24}{100}\times y=932$$

$$62\times22-0.24y=932$$

$$1364-0.24y=932$$

0.24y = 1364-932

0.24y = 432

y = 1800
