Question

Find the Number in Each Case

A) 15% of a number is 3
B) 160% of a number is 80
What are the number in Both A and B?

Answer 1

it seems like you have the answer already. but heres how its calculated.

`(100)/(15) = (?)/(3)`
so the missing number is 20 **cross multiply 100 and 3 to get 300 then divide 15 into 300 to get 20**


`(160)/(100) = (80)/(?)`
so the missing number is 50
**cross multiply 100 and 80 to get 8000 then divide 160 into 8000 to get 50**
