75% of 68=85% of n  68×((75)/(100))=n×((85)/(100))  85n=68×75  n=((68×75)/(85))=60
$$\mathrm{75\%}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{68}=\mathrm{85\%}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{n} \\ $$$$\mathrm{68}×\frac{\mathrm{75}}{\mathrm{100}}={n}×\frac{\mathrm{85}}{\mathrm{100}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{85}{n}=\mathrm{68}×\mathrm{75} \\ $$$${n}=\frac{\mathrm{68}×\mathrm{75}}{\mathrm{85}}=\mathrm{60} \\ $$
