2 votes 2 votes Assume that number is $x.$ Now according to the question $\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{1}{5} x=84$ $\Rightarrow 5x-x = 84 \times 5$ $\Rightarrow 4x = 84 \times 5$ $\Rightarrow x = 21 \times 5$ $\Rightarrow x= 105$ $\textrm{Option C}$ Hira Thakur answered Jun 3, 2020 Hira Thakur 7.1k points comment Share See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
