Question

4% of what number is 49?

Answer 1

Given:

4% of what number is 49?

Let's find the number.

To find number, we have:

`4\text{ \% of x = 49}`

Where x is number.

Let's solve for x.

We have:

`\begin{gathered} 0.04x=49 \\ \\ \text{ Divide both sides by 0.04:} \\ (0.04x)/(0.04)=(49)/(0.04) \\ \\ x=1225 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, 4% of 1225 is 49.

ANSWER:

1225
