To find the number, you can set up the equation 0.15x = 80, where x is the unknown number. To solve for x, divide both sides by 0.15 to isolate x, giving you x = 80 / 0.15 = 533.33. Therefore, 15 percent of 533.33 is equal to 80.

Well, isn't that a happy little math problem we have here? To find out what number we're looking for, we simply need to divide 80 by 15 percent (or 0.15). When we do that, we find that the number we're searching for is 533.333... but don't worry about those extra threes, just round it to 533. Keep up the good work, friend!

Well, honey, to find out what number we're dealing with, you gotta divide 80 by 15 percent (or 0.15 if you're feeling fancy). That gives you 533.33. So, 15 percent of 533.33 is 80. Math can be a real trip, can't it?

"what number" = x

"of" = multiply

"percent" = that number divided by 100

"is" = "="

x(15/100) = 80

x(.15) = 80

x = 80/.15

x = 533.33

Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. So, if 15% of a number is 80, you just divide 80 by 0.15 to find the number. That number is 533.33. So, like, 15% of 533.33 is 80. Easy peasy, right?
