Question

34% of f is equal to 85% of g.
What number should go in the box below?
g =
% of f

Answer 1

• g = 40% of f

---------------------------

34% of f is equal to 0.34f and 85% of g is equal to 0.85g.

These two are same:

• 0.34f = 0.85g

Then g is:

• g = 0.34f/0.85
• g = 0.4f

Hence g = 40% of f.
