Well, isn't that a happy little math problem! To find out what number 20 is 15 percent of, we can use a simple equation. We can divide 20 by 0.15 to find that the number is 133.33. So, 20 is 15 percent of 133.33. Just remember, there are no mistakes in math, just happy little accidents.

Oh, dude, let's break out the calculator for this brain buster! So, if 20 is 15% of a number, we can set up a little equation like 20 = 0.15x and then solve for x. So, like, the number would be 133.33. But hey, who's counting, right?

20 is 15% of 133.33 (actually 133 1/3).

To do this sort of problem, you first convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100 (in this case 15 / 100 = 0.15) and then you divide the number given by that decimal:

20 / 0.15 = 133.333333...

To find the number, you can set up the equation: 20 = 0.15x, where x is the unknown number. To solve for x, divide both sides by 0.15: x = 20 / 0.15. Therefore, the number is 133.33.

15 = 20%

x = 100%

x = 100x15 ÷ 20

x = 75
