What number is 240 60% of?

60% * x = 240
60/100 * x = 240
6/10 * x = 240
3/5 x = 240 / : 3/5
x = 240 : 3/5
x = 240 * 5/3
x = 80 * 5
x = 400

Assume that the number we are looking for is x
We know that:
60% of this number is 240
This means that:
60% * x = 240
0.6x = 240
x = 0.6 240 ​
x = 400
Hope this helps :)
