      Question

      A number is first increased by 100%, then increased by 30%

      and then decreased by 75%. If the resultant number is 195, then find the original number.
      A 265 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 325 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 445 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the original number be '100x'.

      ATQ;

      100x × 2 × 1.3 × 0.25 = 195

      Or, 65x = 195

      So, x = 3

      So, original number = 3 × 100 = 300
