ok so we know 80%=12

20% is a quarter of 80%

a quarter of 12 is 3

20%=3

80%+20%=100%

therefore

12+3=15

x times .8 = 12

Divide 12 by .8 = 15

Test this theory. Multiply 15 times .8 = 12

The sum of two numbers is 80. The difference between the numbers is 12. Find each number. x + y = 80 x – y = 12 2x = 92 x = 46 y = 34 The two numbers are 34 and 46.

Let the number be x.

0.8x = 12

x = 12/0.8

= 15

convert the percentage to a decimal. So 80% = 0.8. then divide 12 by 0.8 to get the answer.

thus, 12 / 0.8 = 15. 15 is the answer!
