Explanation:

in % calculations we always need to identify

100%

and/or

1%

all % numbers can be calculated from at least one of these 2 numbers.

38% = 570

1% = 570/38

100% = 1% × 100 = 570/38 × 100 = 57000/38 =

= 1,500

the original number was 1,500.

Answer:

To find the number, we can set up an equation.

Let's say the number is represented by x.

38/100 = 0.38

38% of the number is equal to 0.38x.

According to the problem, 0.38x = 570.

To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 0.38:

x = 570 / 0.38

Evaluating the division gives us:

x = 1500

Therefore, the number is 1500.
