Sixty is 12% of what number?
its 100/12 *60=500
thank you
breja, I have an additional question for you. Willing to solve it?
yea sure
50 is 30% of what number? Using the method matricked taught you or with your full understanding of this concept, find the answer.
@OrthodoxMan To find the 50% of a number to equal 30, you divide: 30 / 0.5 = 60 50% of 60 = 30.
Sorry but i said 30% of fifty and not 50% of 30, try again.
oops sorry
That's alright, take another shot.
30 / 50% = 30*100/50 = 60
Nope. You made the same mistake again. Don't worry. You need to find what number is multiplied by 30% to get fifty. Just as i asked, fifty is 30% of what number?
@OrthodoxMan is it correct?
Try again?
I'll try
You can do it, just remember. 30% of a number = 50. You're doing the opposite. But you got the right method.
15?
The number has to be greater than 50. You want me to show you how to do it?
yes please because It's very hard
It's not, lemme use the method matricked showed you. (100%/30%)*50 = approx 166.67
Hence, this is the equation: (100%/percentage given)*number given = answer
ohh okay i get it know
Wanna try one more?
yea
forty is 25% of what number?
do i multiply 40 and 25 ?
Use the equation I have given you: (100%/percentage given)*number given = answer
ook
What is the percentage given?
100% /45/*12?
Wrong numbers. forty is 25% of what number?
is/of = %/100 is =12 of =? or x % = 60% then 12/x =60/100 cross multiply 12 * 100=1200 60 * x = 60x 1200=60x solve for x by dividing both sides by 60 1200/60= 20!
Is 20 your final answer?^
@OrthodoxMan yeah.
ITs alright everyone! I have solved everything for her, return to your remedial duties good citizens...
25*45/100 = 10
lmfao @EnteringStacis
what exactly do you want from "25*45/100 = 10"?
please expalain it a dat better
oops 25 times 40 divide by 100 then 10
what do you mean "then 10"?
=10?
(25*40)/100 = 45/4 fyi
that doesnt make sense... are you looking if the statement is true or false?
just tell me exactly what they ask you in the problem
thts it.... im closing thi s question thank you and what pecent of 40 is 25
breja, i believe someone said earlier, but all you have to do is ask yourself that question and substitute "what number" with X. So you'll come up with: X * .4 = 25 Simply solve for X and you'll find your answer.
