Question

20% of 360 is the same as 36% of what number?

Answer 1

.2*360= 72. 72/36*100= 200. The answer is 200

Answer 2

Let's do this problem in two steps:

1) determine 20% of 360: That would be 0.20(360) = 72.

2) determine the number (n) such that 0.36n = 72: n = 72/0.36 = 200.

Check this result. Is 20% of 360 = to 36% of 200?

Is 72 = 72? YES

The number is 200.
