Answer:
The number is 116.6666667 which can be expressed as 
\(116 \frac{2}{3}\)

Explanation:
Assume that the number we are looking for is x.
We are given that 60% of x is equal to 70.

This means that:
60% of x = 70
60% * x = 70
0.6x = 70

We will simply solve for x as follows:
0.6x = 70
x = 
\(\frac{70}{0.6}\)
x = 116.6666667 which can be expressed as 
\(116 \frac{2}{3}\)

Hope this heps :)
