Respuesta :

Answer:

The number is 226.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

Given:

The number is greater than two hundred twenty-five.

So we can say that;

[tex]x>225[/tex] equation 1

Also Given:

Her number is less than 2 hundreds,2 tens, and 7 ones.

Now we can say that 2 hundreds,2 tens, and 7 ones is equal to 227

So now the number is less than 227.

[tex]x<227[/tex] equation 2

From equation 1 and equation 2 we can say that;

[tex]225<x<227[/tex] equation 3

Also,

[tex]225<226<227[/tex] equation 4

Comparing equation 3 and 4 we get;

[tex]x=226[/tex]

Hence The number is 226.
