Question

132 is 12 percent of what number?

Answer 1

The number is 1100

Explanation:

how I did it was

let the number be represented by x

132/x = 12/100

solve for x by crossing multiply

∴ 132 × 100 = 12x

13200 = 12x

divide both sides by 12

13200/12 = 12x/12

x = 1100

Answer 2

Explanation:

what I done was 132 x 12 which equals 1584 then you will divide 1584 by 132 which equals 12%
