0. The question asks for 1% of Zachary's number.

2. Solution Steps

Let xx be Zachary's number. We are given that 20% of xx is
1
8

0. We can write this as:

0.20x=1800.20x = 180
To find xx, divide both sides by 0.20:
x=1800.20=180210=180×102=18002=900x = \frac{180}{0.20} = \frac{180}{\frac{2}{10}} = \frac{180 \times 10}{2} = \frac{1800}{2} = 900
So, Zachary's number is
9
0

0. Now, we want to find 1% of Zachary's number, which is 1% of

9
0

0. $1\%\ \text{of}\ 900 = 0.01 \times 900 = \frac{1}{100} \times 900 = 9$
