Answer: 30 percent of 20 is 6.

_______________________________________________

Explanation:

_______________________________________________

(n/100) * 20 = 6 ?

Solve for "n" .

_______________________________________________

Divide each side of the equation by "20" :

{ (n/100) * 20 } / 20 = 6 / 20 ;

to get:

n/100 = 6/20 ;

↔ 6/20 = n/100 ; solve for "n" ;

Look at the denominators:


20 * ? = 100 ?

100/ 20 = ? ;

100/20 = 5 ;


So, 20 * " 5" = 100 ;

Then 6* 5 = "n" (for the numerator, "n"; in : "n /100" ) ;

→ 6 * 5 = 30 ;

→ n = 30 .

Answer: 30 percent of 20 is 6.
