Question

Solve the percentage problems. b Find the number if 6% of it is 20% of 6

Answer 1

Answer:

the number is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

6% of x = 20% of 6

0.06x=0.20*6

0.06x=1.20

x=1.20/0.06

x=20

Answer 2

By solving the percentage if 6% of it is 20% of 6 then the number would be equal to 20.

How to find the percentage from the total value?

Suppose the value of which a thing is expressed in percentage is "a'

Suppose the percent that considered thing is "a" is b%

Then since percent shows per 100 (since cent means 100), thus we will first divide the whole part into 100 parts and then we multiply it with b so that we collect b items per 100 items(that is exactly what b percent means).

Thus, that thing in number is

$\dfrac{a}{100} \times b$

Let the number be x

6% of x = 20% of 6

$0.06x=0.20\times6\\0.06x=1.20\\x=1.20/0.06\\x=20$
