if 3 less than a number is 65% of the number

then 3 must be 35% of the number.

so the number is…

3/35 x 100 = 8 11/35

You need to figure out what 1% is and if 3 is =35% (100-65), than (35/3) = 1% multiply by 100 to get the answer

let’s name the unknown number x.

3-x=65%

3-x=65/100

3-x=0.65

-x=0.65-3

x=3-0.65

x=2.35
