Question

find the whole quantity is 50% of its 160​

Answer 1

• As per the data given in the question, we have to determine the required number.

             Given data:- $50\%$ of its $160.$

             To find:- Value of given expression.

             Solution:-

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

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

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

         Therefore,

          $\begin{array}{l}5 0\% \times \text { Total }=160 \\\frac{50}{100} \times \text { Total }=160 \\\text { Total }=160 \times \frac{100}{50} \\\text { Total }=160 \times 2 \\\text { Total }=320\end{array}$

    Hence we will get the value $320.$

Answer 2

Given:  The whole quantity if $50$% of its $160$

We have to find the whole quantity.

As we know that a percentage is a fraction of an amount expressed as a particular number of hundredths of that amount.  

By using the unitary method to calculate the percentage of numbers, we are solving the above problem.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

$50$% of its $160$

$\begin{array}{l}=>50 \% \times \text { Total }=160 \\\\=>\frac{50}{100} \times \text { Total }=160 \\\\=>\text { Total }=160 \times \frac{100}{50} \\\\=>\text { Total }=160 \times 2 \\\\=>\text { Total }=320\end{array}$

Hence, the total quantity will be$320$.
