Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for this you can set up a proportion. Where the blank is, put an x so it will look like:

18/60 = x/100

Then, cross multiply

18(100)=60(x)

1800=60x

Now use inverse (opposite) operations to solve for x. In this case, since it is 60(x) we use division. So divide 60 to both sides.

1800/60=x

30=x

Answer:

It is 30!

Step-by-step explanation:

i used cross multyplying .  

     18               x

  -------    =    --------

     60            100

Lets just say that 18 was a percent. you see, 60 is your whole, and 18, is your part.

60 times x = 60x          |           100 times 18 = 1800  

Then  i divide 60 from both sides.

 60         1800

/60            /60

-------     ------------

   0               30

ALSOOOO:

When we where at 60x and 1800....

you can use multyplycation to figure it out. here:

 6       |        12        |        18     |

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

 1        |          2       |         3      |

you see we got to 12 by counting by 6. (multiples of 6) and he had to do this 3 times, so- to get from 60 to 1800, you have to multiply 60 by 30. (30 is the answer)
