The process here is finding out the smallest number's % towards the largest number.

Divide 20 by 52:
20/52 = 0.38 (estimated) | This is the % in decimal form, which is 38%.

Conclusion: 20 is 38% of 52.

{---Further Elaboration for Future Reference---}

Finding the Smallest Number:

What number is 25% of 60?

Multiply 60 by the decimal form of 25%.
60 * 0.25 = 15 | 15 is 25% of 60.

Finding the Percentage. (Like what we already did.)

30 is what percent of 150?

Divide 30 by 150.
30/150 = 0.2 | 30 is 20% of 150.

Finding the Largest Number.

12 is 30% of what number?

Divide 12 by the decimal form of 30%.
12/0.3 = 40 | 12 is 30% of 40.

I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^
