Answer 2

Answer:

The number is 110

Explanation:

To find the number you have to reverse everything so we will start by the number 150, it says that after dividing by 5 we get 150 so we will multiply 150 with 5 because the opposite of decision is multiplication the answer we get is 750. Then you go a step back again and it says to subtract 2000 and the opposite of subtraction is addition so we add 2000 to 750 and we get 2750. Now we go a step back again and it says to multiply by 25 and the opposite of multiplication is division so we will divide 2750 with 25 and we get 110

Step by step:

150×5= 750

=> 750+2000= 2750

2750÷25= 110
