Question

Seenu saves ₹ 4500 from his salary. If this is 15% of his salary. What is his salary?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

15 percent *4500 =

( 15:100)*4500 =

( 15*4500):100 =

67500:100 = 675

Now we have: 15 percent of 4500 = 675

Question: What is 15 percent of 4500?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 4500.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$4500=100\%$.

Step 4: Similarly, $x=15\%$.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

$4500=100\%(1)$.

$x=15\%(2)$.

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{4500}{x}=\frac{100\%}{15\%}$

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

$\frac{x}{4500}=\frac{15}{100}$

$\Rightarrow x=675$

Therefore, $15\%$ of $4500$ is $675$
