Answer: The required number is 0.7.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find a number such that 0.07 is one tenth of that number.
Let the required number be represented by x
Then, according to the given information, we have
[tex]0.07=\dfrac{1}{10}\times x\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.07\times10~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{applying cross-multiplication}]\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.7.[/tex]
Thus, the required number is 0.7.
