Mathematics

Greeley [361]4 years ago

8 0

Answer:

0.15x

Step-by-step explanation:

15% of anything is 15/100 or 0.15 of it. You find that value by multiplying the "anything" by 0.15.

Since we don't know the value of x, the best we can do is show that the number of interest is x multiplied by 0.15.

6% of what number is 270? 4,500 450 45 4.5

Gnoma [55]

So to solve this problem, we can either do guess and check, or solve an equation.

Let's do the equation, since it will work for all problems, even when you're not given a list of possible answers.

So, to begin, let's define our unknown.

We can represent the number as "n"

So, 6 percent of "n" is equal to 270

To find a "percent" of a number, you need to multiply the number by the percentage.

So, 6 percent as a decimal is .06

This is because a percent is a fraction divided by 100 (6/100)

$.6\times n=270\\\n=270\div.6\\n= 4500$

The number is 4,500
