If you take 30 percent of a number and get 310, then what is that number? In other words, you know that 30 percent of a number is 310 and you want to know what that initial number is.
To solve this problem you multiply 310 by 100 and then divide the total by 30 as follows: (310 x 100) / 30
When we put that into our calculator, we get the following answer: 1033.33
