When two-fifths of a number is increased by 15 the result is 27. what is the number?

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation to represent this problem:

2/5 * x + 15 = 27

subtracting 15 from both sides,

2/5 * x = 12

Multiplying 5/2 to both sides,

5/2 * 2/5 * x = 12 * 5/2

1*x = 30

x = 30

30.5*10=350$

you have to multiply the number without the decimal point then add it later but if its tenn u must move the place value of the decimal point 1 to the right.
