240 is 60% of what number

Sagot :

60% * x = 240

60/100 * x = 240

6/10 * x = 240

3/5 x = 240 / : 3/5

x = 240 : 3/5

x = 240 * 5/3

x = 80 * 5

x = 400

Answer:

400


Explanation:

Assume that the number we are looking for is x

We know that:

60% of this number is 240


This means that:

60% * x = 240

0.6x = 240

x = [tex] \frac{240}{0.6} [/tex]

x = 400


Hope this helps :)
