\(\frac{x}{100}*6=\frac{15}{100}*\frac{150}{100}*20\)

Solve

\(\frac{x}{100}*6=0.15*1.5*20\)

\(\frac{x}{100}*6=4.5\)

\(\frac{x}{100}=0.75
\)

\(x=75\)

Why is 150 taken in solution instead of 130?

Fixed everything.

The typo was in stem. It was 150 and NOT 130

I hope this helps this turn around

What (x) percent of 6 = 15 percent of 150 percent of 20?

\(\frac{x}{100} \times 6 = \frac{15}{100} \times \frac{150}{100} \times 20 \)

\(3x = 15 \times 15\)

\(3x = 225\)

\(x= 75%\)
