Question: What is 30 percent of 900?
Percentage solution with steps:
Step 1: Our output value is 900.
Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.
Step 3: From step 1 above,$900=100\%$.
Step 4: Similarly, $x=30\%$.
Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:
$900=100\%(1)$.
$x=30\%(2)$.
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
$\frac{900}{x}=\frac{100\%}{30\%}$
Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives
$\frac{x}{900}=\frac{30}{100}$
$\Rightarrow x=270$
Therefore, $30\%$ of $900$ is $270$
