Question

if y% of x is 20,then x% of y is?explain it also?
A) 10
B) 30
C)20
D)40
​

Answer 1

Answer:

20% of X = Y

.20(X) = Y

.20X = Y

Y = .20X

Now, multiply both sides of the last equation by 20% = .20

(.20)Y = (.20)(.20X)

.20Y = [(.20)(.20)]X

.20Y = [.04]X

.20Y = .04X

Therefore, if 20% of X is equal to Y, then 20% of Y is equal to 4% of X.
