Correct Answer :

Option C

290

290

Solution :

To find the value that should replace the question mark (?), we can write down the given equation:
30% of ?=38+1473

First, let us simplify the right-hand side of the equation.
We begin by calculating the division term:
1473=49

Now, substitute this back into the equation:
30% of ?=38+49

Next, add the numbers on the right-hand side:
38+49=87
So, the equation becomes:
30% of ?=87

We can express 30% as a fraction:
30100×?=87
Simplifying the fraction:
310×?=87

To solve for (?), multiply both sides of the equation by 103:
?=87×103

Divide 87 by 3:
873=29

Now, multiply 29 by 10:
?=29×10=290

Thus, the correct answer is 290.
