Solution

The question is asking for the original amount before the percentages were applied.

Here's how to solve it:

  1. First, understand that 32% of 45% equals 36. This means that 36 is 32% of some number (which is 45% of the original number we're trying to find).

  2. To find this number, divide 36 by 32% (or 0.32). The result is 112.5. This is the number that 45% was taken from.

  3. To find the original number (100%), divide 112.5 by 45% (or 0.45). The result is 250.

So, the original number (100%) is 250.

The two percentages in the question (32% and 45%) are not the same. They are applied sequentially to reduce the original number to 36. The question is asking you to reverse this process to find the original number.
