The answer to your question is 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

percent = 75%

number = 27

To solve this problem use proportions and cross multiplication.

x will be the number we want ot find.

                    27 75%

                     x   100%

                         x = (100 x 27) / 75

-Simplification

                         x = 2700 / 75

-Result

                         x = 36

-Conclusion

27 is the 75% of 36.
