Question

If x% of 75 equal to 12 , then the value of
x is

Answer 1

Here is your answer

$\rule{102}{2}$

$\frac{x}{100}$ * 75 = 12

By cancelling we get,

$\frac{3x}{4}$ = 12

3x = 12 * 4

3x = 48

x = $\frac{48}{3}$

x = 16

∴ The number is 16

Answer 2

x% of 75=12
x/100×75=12
75x/100=12
x=12×100/75
x=16
so 16% of 75=12
