    142.85 (rounded off to two decimal places)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    given

    (49/100) x = 56

    x = (56/49) 100

    x = (8/7) (100)

    we get

    x = 142.85 ...

    1.42%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    let y be the unknown number

    49% * y = 49y%

    49y% = 56

    then the co-efficient of 'y' that is 49% will cancel out leaving 'y' and resulting in 56:49 resulting in 1.42

    therefore the original number is 1.42
