Answer 2

Answer:

87.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the required number,

Then 20% of x = $\frac{20x}{100}$ = 0.20x

According to the question,

20% of x = 35

$\implies 0.20x = 35$

Divide both sides by 0.20

$x=175$

Thus, the required number is 175,

Now, 50% of 175 = $\frac{50\times 175}{100}$

$=\frac{8750}{100}$

$=87.50$
