Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To find this we first have to convert the percentage to a decimal

We do this by moving the decimal point two times left

75.0% = 0.75

Now we multiply this by the number

13.5 * 0.75 = 10.125

The answer is 10.125

Hope this helps!

Let y represent the number.

13.5 = 0.75y
(Divide both sides by 0.75)
y = 18

Therefore the number is 18.
