x= a number

If 52 is 130% of a number, then we multiply the unknown number by 130%.

x * 130%= 52
convert % to decimal (130%÷100)

1.3x= 52
divide both sides by 1.3

x= 40


ANSWER: The unknown number is 40, so it is less than 52. We multiply the unknown number by 130% to equal 52.

Hope this helps! :)

The number must be less than 52 as is everything over 101%.

A percentage is just a fraction where the number to the left of the sign, let's say 'x', is placed in the numerator above 100 (example: x/100) = x%. 

52 / 130% = 52 / 1.3 = 40
