Answer 2

Answer :-

• The value of x = 24.
• 75% of 24 = 18.

Step-by-step explanation :-

75% of x is 18. We have to find the value of x.

Let's proceed!

$\sf75\% \: of \: x = 18$

Converting 75% into fraction,

$\sf\dfrac{ \cancel{75}}{ \cancel{100}} \times x = 18$

Reducing the numbers,

$\sf\dfrac{ \cancel{15}}{ \cancel{20}} \times x = 18$

Reducing the numbers again, we get :-

$\sf \dfrac{3}{4} \times x = 18$

Multiplying $\sf \dfrac{3}{4}$ by x,

$\sf\dfrac{3x}{4} = 18$

Transposing 4 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign,

$\sf3x = 18 \times 4$

Multiplying the numbers,

$\sf3x = 72$

Transposing 3 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign,

$\sf x = \dfrac{72}{3}$

Dividing 72 by 3,

$\sf x = 24.$

So, the value of x = 24.

Hence, 75% of 24 = 18.
