Subtract 1.05 from a certain number. multiply the difference by 0.8, add 2.84 to the product then divide the sum by 0.01 and get 700. what is the number?

The number is 6.25

Explanation:
Assume that the number we are looking for is x

First, we will set up the equations as follows:
1- Subtract 1.05 from the number (assume the result is y):
x - 1.05 = y

2- Multiply the difference by 0.8 (assume the product is z):
0.8(y) = z

3- add 2.84 to the product (assume the result is w):
z + 2.84 = w

4- divide the sum by 0.01, the quotient is 700:
w / 0.01 = 700

Now, we will work backwards as follows:
4) w / 0.01 = 700
    w = 0.01 * 700
    w = 7

3) z + 2.84 = w
    z + 2.84 = 7
    z = 7 - 2.84
    z = 4.16

2) 0.8y = z
    0.8y = 4.16
    y = 4.16 / 0.8
    y = 5.2

1) x - 1.05 = y
    x - 1.05 = 5.2
    x = 5.2 + 1.05
    x = 6.25

Hope this helps :)
