Answer:

Total amount wanted = 800

Step-by-step explanation:

480 represents 60% of the total amount

Let the total amount = x

60/100 * x = 480                           Multiply both sides by 100

60*x = 480 * 100                           Combine

60*x = 48000                                Divide by 60

x = 48000 / 60

x = 800
