Answer:
225 items
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Company produced 24 percent more items than last year.
Company produced 279 items this year.
Lets assume the number of item produced by the company be "x".
As given company has produced 24 percent more item than last year.
∴ Putting up the equation for the item produced this year
[tex]x+\frac{24}{100} \times x= 279[/tex]
⇒[tex]x+0.24x= 279[/tex]
⇒ [tex]1.24x= 279[/tex]
Dividing both side by 1.24
⇒[tex]x= \frac{279}{1.24}[/tex]
∴ [tex]x= 225\ item[/tex]
Hence, company has produced 225 item last year.
