A farm in 2020 produced 205 kg of fruits this was 17% less than the production in 2019, how many kg of fruit was produced in 2019?​



Answer :

Answer:246.99(approxapproximately

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose,

the fruit production in 2019 is X kg

therefore ,

the fruit production in 2017 is (X - 17% of X) kg

According to the question,

(X - 17% of X) = 205

or, X - {(17/100) of X} = 205

or, X - {17X/100} = 205

or,(100X - 17X)/100 = 205

or, 100X - 17 X = 205*100

or, 83X = 20500

or, X = 20500/83

or, X = 246.99( Approximately )

therefore ,

the fruit production in 2017 is 246.99 kg( Approximately )
