Question

fill in the missing number.
□% of 2,000 = 1,040

Explanation:

Step1: Let the missing percentage be \( x \). The formula for percentage is \( \frac{x}{100} \times 2000 = 1040 \)

\( \frac{x}{100} \times 2000 = 1040 \)

Step2: Simplify the left side. \( 20x = 1040 \) (since \( \frac{2000}{100}=20 \))

\( 20x = 1040 \)

Step3: Solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides by 20. \( x = \frac{1040}{20} \)

\( x = \frac{1040}{20} = 52 \)

Answer:

52
