Question

Solve the following variables
1) 40% of y = 15000
2) 2% of x = 20,000​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.37500

2.400

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 40/100×y=15000

2y=15000

y=37500

2. 2/100×x=20000

50x=20000

x=400

Answer 2

Answer:

1) 40% of 37500 = 15000

2) 2% of 10,00,000 =20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 40% = 40/ 100

40/100 × y = 15000

RECIPROCAL OF 40/100 = 100/40

so,

y = 15000 × 100/40

y = 37500

40% × 37500 = 15000

2) 2% = 2/100

RECIPROCAL OF 2/100 = 100/2

so,

x = 20,000 × 100/2

× = 10,00,000

2% × 10,00,000 =20,000
