Question

When a number is increased by 9.5%, the result is 58. What is the original number to the nearest tenth?

(I’ve seen other questions like this, but the answer is wrong. It’s not 50 or 52.49 or 52.5.)

    Answer:

    5.03196347032

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We do:

    .095x+x=58

    1.095x=58

    x=52.96

    52.96 is a approximation and when you do the math and see what  9.5 of 52.96 plus 52.96 is you get 57.9912 which is super close to 8 The exact answer is x = 5.03196347032
