Answer:

We will get $75\% \ of\ 36\ is\ 27.$

Step-by-step explanation:

• As per the question we have to evaluate the given data.

        Given data:- $75\% \ of\ it\ is\ 27.$

        To find:-Value of the whole quantity.

        Solution:-

• A percentage is a fraction of an amount expressed as a particular number of hundredths of that amount.

• It is denoted by %.

• We are using the unitary method to calculate the percentage of numbers.

• Fractions can be converted into percentages and vice-versa.

       Therefore,

        $\frac{75}{100} \times x=27\\=>\frac{75x}{100}=27\\=>75x=27\times100\\=>75x=2700\\=>x=\frac{2700}{75}\\=>x=36.$
