To solve the question, "What percent of 64 is 48?", we can set up the equation:

Let x be the percentage of 64 that equals 48. This can be expressed as:

x% of 64 = 48

We know that "x%" means x/100, so we can rewrite the equation as:

(x/100) * 64 = 48

Now, to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 64:

x/100 = 48/64

Simplify the right-hand side:

x/100 = 3/4

Now, multiply both sides of the equation by 100 to isolate x:

x = (3/4) * 100

x = 75

Therefore, 48 is 75% of 64.
