The number is:

                      285

It is given that:

1 2/3% of a number is 4.75.

Let the number be x.

We know that:

This means that:

i.e.

Hence, the number is: 285

The number obtained by setting up a proportional relationship is 285

Let the number = d

Setting up a proportional relationship thus :

This can be expressed thus :

0.0166666 = 4.75

1 = d

Cross multiply

0.0166666d = 4.75

Divide both sides by 0.0166666

0.0166666d / 0.0166666 = 4.75 / 0.0166666

d = 285

Therefore, the value of the original number is 285.
