1. Problem Description

We are given that 84%84\% of NN is equal to 105%105\% of (N120)(N-120). We need to find what percentage of NN is 192192.

2. Solution Steps

First, we set up the equation based on the given information:
84%N=105%(N120)84\% \cdot N = 105\% \cdot (N-120)
Convert percentages to decimals:
0.84N=1.05(N120)0.84N = 1.05(N-120)
Expand the right side:
0.84N=1.05N1.051200.84N = 1.05N - 1.05 \cdot 120
0.84N=1.05N1260.84N = 1.05N - 126
Move terms involving N to one side:
1.05N0.84N=1261.05N - 0.84N = 126
0.21N=1260.21N = 126
Solve for N:
N=1260.21N = \frac{126}{0.21}
N=600N = 600
Now, we need to find what percentage of NN is 192192. Let's call that percentage xx.
x%N=192x\% \cdot N = 192
x%600=192x\% \cdot 600 = 192
Convert percentage to a decimal:
x100600=192\frac{x}{100} \cdot 600 = 192
Solve for xx:
6x=1926x = 192
x=1926x = \frac{192}{6}
x=32x = 32

3. Final Answer

The final answer is 32.
