Question

75% of what equals 30

Answer 1

Answer:

30 is 75% of 40

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, 75% × x = 30 or, 75/100 x = 30. Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 75,  x = 40.

And if you are using a calculator, simply enter 30×100÷75, which will give you the answer.

Answer 2

Hey there!

75% of ? = 30

75% of x = 30

75/100 * x = 30

75 ÷ 25 / 100 ÷ 25 * x = 30

3/4 * x = 30

MULTIPLY 4/3 to BOTH SIDES

4/3 * 3/4x = 4/3 * 30

CANCEL out: 4/3 * 3/4 because that gives you 1

KEEP: 4/3 * 30 because it helps solve for your answer

x = 4/3 * 30

SIMPLIFY IT

x = 40

Therefore, 75% of [40] = 30

Answer: 40

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
