39 is 26% of 150


100%/x%=150/39
(100/x)*x=(150/39)*x
100=3.84615384615*x
(3.84615384615) to get x
100/3.84615384615=x
26=x
x=26

Okay 39 is 150% of what number? so like remember whenever you see percent you have to divide by 100
so let's start
First. we have 150% so let's divide 150%/100=1.5

Second. you will multiply 1.5*39= 26%

and you can also do it like easy way.

39/150=0.26
0.26/100=26

39 is 26% of 150

hope i help :p
