  • Question
  • 36 of what number is 18?


  • Options
  • A. 38
  • B. 42
  • C. 50
  • D. 62

  • Correct Answer
  • 50 

    Explanation

    Let the required number be 'p'

    36 of what number is 18 implies 36% of p = 18

    => 36 x p/100 = 18

    => p = 1800/36

    => p = 50.

     

    Hence, 36% of 50 is 18.
