-----------------------------------------
20% of 6 :
-----------------------------------------
20% of 6 = 0.2 x 6 = 1.2

6% = 1.2

-----------------------------------------
Find 1% :
-----------------------------------------
1% = 1.2 ÷ 6
1% = 0.2

-----------------------------------------
Find 100% :
-----------------------------------------
100% = 0.2 x 100
100% = 20

-----------------------------------------
Answer: The number is 20.
