  1. Answer:

    D. 150

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the number be ‘x’.

    Then it’s 60% is (60/100)×x

    =3x/5

    If 60 is added to it,then 60+3x/5

    Case (i): If x=60+3x/5,then

    => x=150.

    Case (ii): If x>60+3x/5 , then

    => 2x/5 > 60

    => x > 150.

    Case (iii): If x<60+3x/5, then

    => 2x/5 < 60

    => x <150.

    Hope it helps !! 😀
