I think you are asking,"If 75% of a sum of money is £600, how do I find 100% of that mmoney?"
In this case notice that 75% is three quarters of £600,
There are many ways to solve the problem.
Because this is a simple case we could say, "If 75% of the amount required equals £600, another 25% would be a third of the 75% and a third of £600 is £200.
Add the £200 to the £600 and you have £800 for the answer.
If the figures are more difficult I would us another method: take this example:
If 85% of a sum of money is £425, how much is all of it?"
So , using 85% = 85/100 85/100 of £S = £425 So 1/100 of £S = £425/85
and 100 hundredths of £S will be (£425/85) * (£425/ 85) * 100 which is the same as saying $425 x 100/85; that means £425 multiplied by 100 over 85.
The answer is £500
Now 100 over 85 is the "upside down" figure for 85% which equals 85 over 100
In other words if 65% of £S is £39 how much is all of it.
Anmswer is found by multiplying £39 by the "upside down" of 65% which is 100 over 65 = £60

How do you find the percent if the whole number is known?
Take the number you have out of the whole, then dived it by the whole number. Multiply the resulting number by 100 and that's your percent.Example:What percentage is 7 of 10?7 / 10= .7.7 x 100 = 707 is 70% of 10.

How do find a certain percentage to a whole number?
If you want to find x percent of a number y then you need to calculate y*(x/100). It makes no difference whether y is a whole number or not.
What is the whole number of 80 percent?
To find the whole number equivalent of 80%, you multiply the percentage by the whole number. In this case, 80% of the whole number would be 0.80 x 100 = 80. Therefore, the whole number equivalent of 80% is 80.
How do you find whole when part and percent is known?
Divide 100 by the known percentage and multiply the result by the known part. This will calculate the whole. Example: £10 is equal to 25%. Thus the whole = (100/25) * 10 = £40.
What is 14 percent as a whole number?
To convert a percentage to a whole number, you divide the percentage by 100. Therefore, to find 14 percent as a whole number, you would divide 14 by 100. This calculation results in 0.14 as a decimal. To express this as a whole number, you would multiply 0.14 by 100 to get 14.
