What is the number of whose 8 % is 18

Answer 1

The number of which 18 is 8% is 225.

Answer 2

Answer :-

• The required number is 225.

Given :-

• A number's 8% is 18.

To find :-

• The number.

Step-by-step explanation :-

• Let the required number be x.

• It has been given that 8% of x is equal to 18.

--------------------

$\implies\sf 8\% \: of \: x = 18$

Converting 8% into fraction,

$\implies\sf \dfrac{8}{100} \times x = 18$

Multiplying x by the fraction,

$\implies\sf \dfrac{8x}{100} = 18$

Transposing 100 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign,

$\implies\sf 8x = 18 \times 100$

Multiplying 18 by 100,

$\implies\sf 8x = 1800$

Transposing 8 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign,

$\implies\sf x = \dfrac{1800}{8}$

Diving 1800 by 8,

$\overline{\boxed{\implies\sf x = 225.}}$

--------------------

• Hence, 8% of 225 is 18.
