Step-by-step explanation:
If the mystery number rounds to 700, then it has 3 digits before decimal points and two digits after decimal point.
Hence, the mystery number is
The digit in the tenth place is double the digit in the tens place, so
If b = 1, then d = 2
If b = 2, then d = 4
If b = 3, then d = 6
If b = 4, then d = 8
The difference between the digit in the hundreds place and the ones place is 3, so
The first digit can be only 7, because b < 5 and the number rounds to 700. So
If a = 7, then c = 4
