Math help (should be easy)!?
I should know this, but I can't get my hea around it...
20% of m is 55
30% of n is 60
n is what percent of m?
73%
27%
138%
1.64%
.73%
How should I work this out? Any help would be appreciated!

First find what m is by dividing 55 by 20 and multiplying by 100.
Then find what n is by dividing 60 by 30 and multiplying by 100.
Then divide n by m and multiply by 100.
You'll have to round this answer up to the next #.

20% of m is 55
30% of n is 60
First find m and n:
20% = .2
.2m = 55
m = 55/.2
m = 275
30% = .3
.3n = 60
n = 60/.3
n = 200
200/275 x 100% = 72.727272727272... = 73%

73%.
.20m=55.
m= 275
.30n=60
n=200
therefore: 200/275 = x/100 --> x=72.7

first solve for m and n
0.2m = 55
m= 55(0.2) = 275
0.3n=60
n=60(0.3) = 200
n/m = 200/275 = 0.727
So 73%
guttface
0.2m=55
0.3n=60
so:
m=275
n=200
n/m= 200/275 = 0.727 = 72.7% = 73% when rounded
