Given:

There are given that the final number is 150.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question:

We need to find the percentage number.

Then,

Suppose the percentage number is x.

Then,

The equation will be:

$150* x\%=60$

Now,

We need to solve the above equation for the value of x.

Then,

Divide by 150 on both sides of the equation:

$(150)/(150)* x\operatorname{\%}=(60)/(150)$

Then,

$\begin{gathered} x\%=(60)/(150) \\ x\operatorname{\%}=(6)/(15) \\ x\operatorname{\%}=0.4 \\ x=0.4*100 \\ x=40 \end{gathered}$

Final answer:

Hence, the percentage is 40%.
