Q: If 60% of a number is 120, what is the number?
Solution:
Let the number be x. 0.6x = 120, x = 120/0.6 = 200
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that 60% means 60 out of 100, or 0.6 in decimal form.
Step 2: Let the unknown number be represented by 'x'.
Step 3: Write the equation for 60% of 'x': 0.6 * x = 120.
Step 4: To find 'x', we need to isolate it. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.6.
Step 5: Perform the division: x = 120 / 0.6.
Step 6: Calculate the result: 120 divided by 0.6 equals 200.
Step 7: Therefore, the number is 200.
