Question

If 90% of a number is 110, find 9% of that number.​

Answer 1

We can set up the equation :

0.9x = 110 ,

where x is the unknown number. To solve for x, we can divide both sides by 0.9 :

x = 110 ÷ 0.9

x = 122.22 (rounded to two decimal places)

So the unknown number is approximately 122.22.

To find 9% of that number, we can multiply 122.22 by 0.09 :

0.09 × 122.22 = 11.00 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, 9% of the number is approximately 11.
