Uhhhhhh why did my question get deleted?

Here it is: 20% of a number is x. What is 100% of the number? Assume x > 0.

Answer 1

x is 20% of Number

x = (0.2) x (number) .

Divide each side by 0.2 : Number = x / 0.2

Number = 5x .

'x' can be anything, even zero. This equation works for x=any number.

Answer 2

5x is 100% of the number.

100/20=5%

5*x=5x percent.
