Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set up an equation.

  • [tex]\frac{x}{100}(60)=24[/tex]

Step 2: Simplify both sides of the equation.

  • [tex]\frac{x}{100}(60)=24[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{60}{100}x= 24[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{3}{5}x=24[/tex]

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 5/3.

  • [tex]\frac{3}{5}x* \frac{5}{3}=24 * \frac{5}{3}[/tex]
  • [tex]x = \frac{120}{3}[/tex]
  • [tex]x = 40[/tex]

Therefore, the missing number is 40 to make 40% of 60 = 24.
