Question

60% of a number is 300. What is 25% of the number?

Answer 1

Think about what it's asking you, it's saying that if you take 60% of a number, we'll call that number x, that you'll get 300, write that out mathematically and we get,\[.6x=300\]once you solve for that x, you can figure out what 25% of that number is as well
