In linear equation, 300 is 75% of the number.
What are instances of linear equations?

Ax+By=C represents a two- variable linear equation in its standard form. A standard form linear equation is, for instance, 2x+3y=5.
Finding both intercepts of an equation in this form is rather simple (x and y).
When resolving systems of two linear equations, this form is also incredibly helpful.

115% of a number is 460,
let number is x .
x = 460/115 * 100
46000 / 115 = x
x = 400
400 * 75/100 = 300
