20% is 30,600
Therefore 15% = ?
? = (15% * 30,600)/20%
i.e (15 * 30,6000)/20
Hope it helps !! :)
Therefore 15% = ?
? = (15% * 30,600)/20%
i.e (15 * 30,6000)/20
Hope it helps !! :)

20% is equal to 30600.
15% = (30600*15/20) = 22950.
15% = (30600*15/20) = 22950.

20% = 30600.
10% = 30600/2 = 15300.
5% = 15300/2 = 7650.
We want 15% so 10%+5% = 15300+7650 = 22950.
10% = 30600/2 = 15300.
5% = 15300/2 = 7650.
We want 15% so 10%+5% = 15300+7650 = 22950.

30600 = 20%.
1% = 1530.
15% = 15 * 1530 = 22950.
1% = 1530.
15% = 15 * 1530 = 22950.

Why we get 20% in denominator?

In the first figure, 100 is up and 20 is below but in the second the figure 100 is down and 15 is up. How was that possible. Please explain in detail I am very weak in maths.
