Question

if x is 60% of y , then what % of 2x is y?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$x = \frac{60}{100} y \\ \\ = \frac{3}{5} y = \frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{5} \\ \\ 2x = 6 \\ y = 5 \\ required = \frac{5}{6} \times 100 = \frac{500}{6} = 83.33\%$

Answer 2

Answer:

83.33 %

Step-by-step explanation:

X = 60% × y

X= 60/100 × y

x= 3/5 y

x/y = 3/5

Let a be the percent

According to the question,

2x × a/100 = y

2× 3/5y  × a/100 = y

6/5y × a = 100y

a = 500/6

a= 83.33 %
