Question

60percent of 3/8 of a number is 180 find the number

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

60% means 60/100

60% of 3/5 of a number is 36. Accordingly

60/100 × 3x/5 = 36

180x/500 = 36

Cross multiplication

180x = 36 × 500

x = (36 x 500)/180

x = 2 × 500/10

x = 2 × 50

x = 100

Means number is 100

Answer the number is 100

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

60/100 *3/8 * x = 180

180 * 8 *100

------------------

3 * 60

= 800
