Answer:
The value of k is 496
Step-by-step explanation:
let, the other two numbers be x and y
so, (x+y) +k =1116
let the value of (x+y) be 100 so we can assume k to be 20% less of 100 which is 80
so now (x+y) =100(assuming)
k =80(assuming)
now, (x+y) +k =1116 (putting assumed values(
or, 100 + 80 =1116
or, 180 units = 1116
or, 1 unit = 1116/180
.: 1 unit = 6.2
we have assumed value of k to be 80 units previously so now, k = 80 units
or, K =80*6.2 (1 unit =6.2)
.: k = 496
Hope this answer helps you
