Melanie has a $60 so far to buy a lawn mower. This is 20% of the price of the lawn mower. What is the full price of the lawn mowers that she wants to buy?

Respuesta :

--Percent means out of 100, so 20% = 20/100

The prob in other words is asking
  --  $60 is 20% of what number?

'$60'   --          --->  60
'is'       --          --->  =
20%    --         ---> 20/100
'of'     --            ---> * (multiply)
'what number'  ---> x  (variable)
