Answer :
18 is 60% of what number? 30 is your answer.
Let n be the number.
18 = 60% of n
18 = 0.6n
18/0.6 = n
30 = n
Let n be the number.
18 = 60% of n
18 = 0.6n
18/0.6 = n
30 = n
is means equal
of means multiplication
Soooo
[tex]\sf{18 = \frac{60}{100} \times x}[/tex]
And simplifying that
[tex]\sf{18 \times \frac{100}{60} = x}[/tex]
And simplifying that more:
[tex]\sf{30 =x}[/tex]
So x=30
So the number you are looking for is 30
