Let the number be x

So 12% of x

= 0.12 of x

= 0.12x

Also 10 % of 6

= 0.10 of 6

= 0.10 ×6

= 0.6

Now 12% of x is the same as 10% of 6.

So

Now as both represent the same quantity

So 0.12x = 0.6

Dividing both sides by 0.12

We get

x = 0.6 / 0.12

x= 5

Hence 12% of 5 is the same as 10% of 6
