To find:

The given number

Let, the number be "x"

According to the problem,

2[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] = 11% of x

or, 2[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]  = x ×[tex]\frac{11}{100}[/tex]

or, [tex]\frac{11}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{11x}{100}[/tex]

or, 11 ×5x = 100×11 [ by cross multiplication]

or, x = 20

2 1/5 ÷ 0.11

2 1/5 * 100/11

11/5 *100/11

100/5

Put in lowest terms

100/5 ÷ 5

20
