Question

Find the number x if :
150% of x is 300

Answer 1

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 150% of x  = 300

[(150)/100] x = 300

x = [300 /(150)]100

x =200

Answer 2

The number x is 200.

Given - 150% of x is 300

Find - Number x

Solution - Solving the given expression to find the value of x. We will relate the values as per the question.

The percentage of x will be equal to total number, which is, 300.

Representing in equation form, and solving find the value of x.

$\frac{150}{100} \times x = 300$

Shifting values on Left Hand Side to Right Hand Side

$x = \frac{300 \times 100}{150}$

Cancelling zero as common in both numerator and denominator, and performing division and multiplication to find the value of x.

$x = 2 \times 100$

Performing multiplication

x = 200

Hence, the value of x is 200.
