Question

 If 75% of a number is 30,what is 125% of that number ? 
please say step by step ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

75% may also be expressed as 75/100=3/4 or as 0.75 as needed.

Let x = the number

Translate:

"if 75% of a number is 60" means

(75/100) * x = 60 [the word "of" usually means multiply]

(3/4) x = 60 [reduce or just write it this way]

x = 60(4/3) [multiply both sides by 4/3]

x = 80
