Answer:
15,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever I think about solving problems with percentages, I know that I either have to multiply or divide to get the answer.
In this, in other to get the bigger number, aka the denominator (which is essentially the number that is being solved for to obtain the %), I know I have to divide the smaller number by the percentage.
80% = .80
(Because it needs to be a decimal)
12,000 divided by .80 = 15,000
Hope this helps!
