When 9 is added to 10% of a number, it gives the number itself. Find the number.
Let the number be \( x \).
According to the problem:
\[ 10\% \text{ of } x + 9 = x \]
This can be written as:
\[ \frac{10}{100}x + 9 = x \]
\[ 0.1x + 9 = x \]
Rearrange the equation to isolate \( x \):
\[ 9 = x - 0.1x \]
\[ 9 = 0.9x \]
Solve for \( x \):
\[ x = \frac{9}{0.9} \]
\[ x = 10 \]
So, the number is:
\[ \boxed{10} \]

What percentage of the following letters can be drawn using straight lines?
\[ H, K, X, Z, D, G, Q \]
Letters that can be drawn using straight lines are:
- \( H \)
- \( K \)
- \( X \)
- \( Z \)
- \( D \)
Letters that cannot be drawn using straight lines are:
- \( G \)
- \( Q \)
Total letters = 7

An article with a price tag of Rs. 200 is sold at a 20% discount. Due to the festival season, the shopkeeper provides an additional discount of 50% on the discounted price. Find the selling price of the article.
#### Step 1: Calculate the price after the first discount (20% off)
\[ \text{Discount} = 20\% \text{ of } 200 = \frac{20}{100} \times 200 = 40 \]
\[ \text{Price after first discount} = 200 - 40 = 160 \]
#### Step 2: Calculate the price after the second discount (50% off)
\[ \text{Discount} = 50\% \text{ of } 160 = \frac{50}{100} \times 160 = 80 \]
\[ \text{Price after second discount} = 160 - 80 = 80 \]
So, the selling price is:
\[ \boxed{80} \]

Tina donated 20% of her salary to charity and spent 20% of the remaining amount. She still has Rs. 7040 left. What was her total salary?
Let Tina's total salary be \( x \).
#### Step 1: Calculate the amount donated to charity
\[ \text{Amount donated} = 20\% \text{ of } x = \frac{20}{100}x = 0.2x \]
\[ \text{Remaining amount after donation} = x - 0.2x = 0.8x \]
#### Step 2: Calculate the amount spent from the remaining amount
\[ \text{Amount spent} = 20\% \text{ of } 0.8x = \frac{20}{100} \times 0.8x = 0.2 \times 0.8x = 0.16x \]
\[ \text{Amount left} = 0.8x - 0.16x = 0.64x \]
#### Step 3: Set up the equation
\[ 0.64x = 7040 \]
Solve for \( x \):
\[ x = \frac{7040}{0.64} = 11000 \]
So, Tina's total salary is:
\[ \boxed{11000} \]

2.4 is what percent of 600?
Let the percentage be \( p \).
\[ 2.4 = \frac{p}{100} \times 600 \]
Solve for \( p \):
\[ p = \frac{2.4 \times 100}{600} = \frac{240}{600} = 0.4 \]

If \( x \) is 10% less than \( y \), then \( y \) is more than \( x \) by what percentage?
Let \( x = y - 10\% \text{ of } y \).
\[ x = y - \frac{10}{100}y = y - 0.1y = 0.9y \]
Now, find how much more \( y \) is than \( x \):
\[ y - x = y - 0.9y = 0.1y \]
The percentage increase from \( x \) to \( y \) is:
\[ \text{Percentage increase} = \left( \frac{y - x}{x} \right) \times 100 = \left( \frac{0.1y}{0.9y} \right) \times 100 = \frac{0.1}{0.9} \times 100 = \frac{10}{9} \approx 11.11\% \]
So, the answer is:
\[ \boxed{\frac{1}{9}\%} \]
---
_ % of 160 + 45% of 920 = 510. Find the missing number.
Let the missing percentage be \( p \).
\[ \frac{p}{100} \times 160 + \frac{45}{100} \times 920 = 510 \]
Simplify:
\[ \frac{p}{100} \times 160 + 414 = 510 \]
\[ \frac{p}{100} \times 160 = 510 - 414 \]
\[ \frac{p}{100} \times 160 = 96 \]
\[ p \times 160 = 96 \times 100 \]
\[ p = \frac{96 \times 100}{160} = 60 \]
So, the missing percentage is:
\[ \boxed{60} \]
