108 is 36% of what number? so 
"of" means times
36%=0.36 and
x is our unknown number we want to find
so we can set it out like this.

0.36 times x = 108
                 x = 108/0.36
                 x = ........... (you can do this)

anonymous · Answer

Explanation: I know "of" means times and 36%=0.36 and I make x my unknown, then I can set out an equation with what was given.
0.36 times x = 108
then I can solve for x from there to find out the number.
