2

6. We need to find what 15% of Toby's number is.

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to find Toby's number. Since 10% of his number is 26, we can set up the equation:

$0.10 * x = 26$, where $x$ is Toby's number.

To find $x$, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.10:

$x = \frac{26}{0.10} = 260$

So, Toby's number is

6

0.

Next, we need to find 15% of Toby's number, which is

2

6

0. To do this, we multiply 260 by 0.15:

$0.15 * 260 = 39$

3. Final Answer

15% of Toby's number is 39.
