Question

If 8/9 of a number is 328, find the number

Answer 1

Answer: the number is 369

Explanation:

Let the missing number be y

8/9 × y = 328

8/9y = 328

Divide both sides by 8/9

y = 328 ÷ 8/9

y = 328 × 9/8 (multiply the two numerators: 328 x 9= 2952

Multiply the denominator by 1: 8 x 1= 8

Therefore y = 2952/8

y = 369
