Answer 1

25% of x = 9
25/100 × x = 9
x = 100/25 × 9
x = 4 × 9
x = 36

Answer 2

Answer:

9 is 25% of 36

Explanation:

Let the number be x

According to the problem given,

25% of x = 9

=> 25% * x = 9

$\times \frac{25}{100}\times x = 9$

$\implies x = 9 \times \frac{100}{25}$

According to the problem given,

$\implies x = 9 \times 4$

=> x = 36

Therefore,

9 is 25% of 36
