Answer: 15,000

Explanation:

replace "is" with = (equal sign)

replace "of" with × (multiplication sign)

and divide 0.3% by 100 (move decimal 2 places to the left) to convert it from a percent to a decimal. --> 0.3% = 0.003

Then solve the equation!

Let n represent the unknown number, then


45=0.003n\\\\\\(45)/(0.003)=(0.003n)/(0.003)\\\\\\\large\boxed{15,000}=n
