The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the three-digit number based on the given statements, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement I Statement I states that two-fifths of the number is half of 204. 1. Let's denote the three-digit number as \( x \). 2. According to the statement, we can write the equation: \[ \frac{2}{5}x = \frac{1}{2} \times 204 \] 3. Calculate half of 204: \[ \frac{1}{2} \times 204 = 102 \] 4. Now substitute this back into the equation: \[ \frac{2}{5}x = 102 \] 5. To find \( x \), multiply both sides by \( \frac{5}{2} \): \[ x = 102 \times \frac{5}{2} = 102 \times 2.5 = 255 \] ### Step 2: Analyze Statement II Statement II states that 20% of the number is 51. 1. Again, let \( x \) be the three-digit number. 2. According to the statement, we can write the equation: \[ 0.2x = 51 \] 3. To find \( x \), divide both sides by 0.2: \[ x = \frac{51}{0.2} = 51 \times 5 = 255 \] ### Conclusion From both statements, we have calculated the three-digit number \( x \) to be 255. Thus, both statements are sufficient to determine the three-digit number. ### Final Answer The three-digit number is **255**.
