Question

The number 6 is 30% of what?

Answer 1

So firstly, we want to know from which number can we take 30% and get 6. Well how about we turn that into an equation. So how about let's say that x is the number we are supposed to be looking for. 30% of x will be equal and then if you multiply 30% x 2 it will be 6. So we multiply each sides by 100 and then we divide 30 on each sides and we get: x=(6*100)/30 and that is equal to: x=20. So 30% out of 20 is 6.

(I will be honest about this. I kind of used someone's answer and changed it. But I hope it helps! :D)

Answer 2

So we wan't to know from which number can we take 30% and get 6. Well, lets turn that into an equation. Lets say that x is the number we are looking for. So, 30% of x is equal 6 or mathematically: 30% * x = 6. Now: (30/100)*x=6 and when we multiply both sides with 100 and divide both sides with 30 we get: x=(6*100)/30 and that is equal to: x=20. So 30% out of 20 is 6.
