Answer:

49.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Number - x

2.5% of the number is 0.025x.

New number is  x+0.025x = 1.025x.

New number is 51.

1.025x = 51

x = 51/1.025≈ 49.8

rohan bought 3.4 pounds of cashews on wednesday 2.5 pounds on thursday and 4 pounds on friday. he is going to divide them equall
kenny6666 [7]
First, you would add all the pounds he bought altogether, to know how much he bought, and how many pounds he will divide amongst his friends. That's 3.4 + 2.5 + 4 which equals to 9.9.

So he divides 9.9 pounds of cashews between himself and his two friends, and that makes it dividing 9.9 pounds between two people. That would simply make it : 9.9 ÷ 3, which equals to 3.3

Each friend will get 3.3 pounds of cashews.
