1. Problem Description

The problem asks to find the missing percentage such that x%x \% of 6060 equals 3636. In other words, we need to find the value of xx in the equation: (x/100)60=36(x/100) * 60 = 36.

2. Solution Steps

We have the equation:
x100×60=36\frac{x}{100} \times 60 = 36
We need to solve for xx. First, multiply both sides of the equation by 100:
x×60=36×100x \times 60 = 36 \times 100
60x=360060x = 3600
Now, divide both sides by 60:
x=360060x = \frac{3600}{60}
x=3606x = \frac{360}{6}
x=60x = 60

3. Final Answer

60
