Question

34% of a number is 68, what is the number?

Answer 1

Explanation:

again, if you don't know anything else, get 100% and/or 1%. everything else can be calculated out of any of these. including themselves, as e.g.

100% = 1% × 100

so, we know

34% = 68

now, what is 1% ?

1% = 34%/34 = 68/34 = 2

and now,

100% = 1% × 100 = 2 × 100 = 200

the original number is 200.
