    A)  96                               

    B)  104                 

    C)  112                             

    D)  120

    E)  Other than those given as options

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let the number be\[x\]. Then,\[x-\frac{x\times 45}{100}=88\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{55x}{100}=88\]     \[\Rightarrow \]\[x=\frac{88\times 100}{55}=160\] Now, required number\[=160\times \frac{65}{100}=104\]             Logical method: Difference of the number\[=(100-45)\] \[=55%\] \[\because \]\[55%\equiv 88\] \[\therefore \]\[65%\equiv \frac{88}{55}\times 65=\frac{8}{5}\times 65=104\]
