Find the whole. Explain your method.

60% of what number is 24

First you have to set an expression that will link to this problem which is. Wait the 60% turns into a decimal form to multiply it easier. So it is 0.6. Now let's set an equation 0.6x=24 now it needs to be divided to find the correct answer X=24/0.6

X=40.

SO You see Math is easy when you see a pattern

60/100=24/x

100 times 24

Your answer divided by 60
