You can put this solution on YOUR website! 51 is 6% of what number ?
Okay, so let's start by setting up this problem:
(original number=x)(percentage=.06)=(percentage of original number)
So it should look like this:
(x)(.06)=51 Now we should divide .06 from each side
x=850 And there we go! 850 is the answer.
I hope this helped!
