Jimmy Schwartz · Answer 1

Whole = Part / Percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the part is 3, and it is 15% of the whole.

We need to find what the percentage is if the part was 1, so we do percent (15) divided by part (3), and get 5. 100% / 5% = 20. Therefore, 20 is our whole in this scenario.
