If 20$\%$ of 10$\%$ of a number is 12, what is 10$\%$ of 20$\%$ of the same number?
Let me start by calling the number x and writing an equation for the condition. 20$\%$ of 10$\%$ of x means 0.2 times 0.1 times x, which is 0.02x. This is equal to 12, so I have 0.02x = 12. To solve for x, I can divide both sides by 0.02. This gives me x = 12 / 0.02, which is 600. Now that I have x, I can find 10$\%$ of 20$\%$ of x. This means 0.1 times 0.2 times x, which is 0.02x. But I already know that 0.02x is 12, so I have my answer.
