Question

Find the whole quantity 25% it is 450

Answer 1

let the no. be x

given 25 % of x = 450

25/100 × x = 450

x = 450 × 100/25

x = 1800

Answer 2

Answer:

1800

Step-by-step explanation:

lets make it in a statement form to simplify and solve it

as percent means per hundred, therefore 25% is 25 per 100 or 25/100

let the unknown quantity be 'x'

therefore, 25/100 × x = 450

now we will solve it further by transposing:-

25x = 450×100

x=45000/25

x = 1800
