Answer 2

Given: X percent of Y.

To find: X percent of Y is Y percent of.

Solution: X percent of Y is Y percent of X.

The given question can be represented in the form of an equation as shown below.

$\frac{x}{100} *y = \frac{y}{100} *?$

In the above equation, the value of the question mark must be found. Thus, the equation must be rearranged by cross multiplication and the question mark must be isolated in order to find its value.

$xy = y*?$

$? = \frac{xy}{y}$

$? = x$

Thus, the value of the question mark is the same as x.

Therefore, X percent of Y is Y percent of X.
