Question

If 30% of a number is 6, find 10% of that number.
Answer Attempt 1 out of 2

Answer 1

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You must first multiply x by 0.3 (which represents the decimal form of 30%). In this case, 0.3x is equal to 6, or 0.3x=6. The next step is to divide both sides by 0.3, which gives you the answer x=20. In order to find 10% of the original number, you must multiply 20 by the decimal value of 10%, which is 0.1

0.1x20=2.
