STEP 1

Assumptions
1. We are given a number, 1.2.
2. We need to find out what percentage 1.2 is of another number, which is $\frac{3}{4}$.
3. The percentage is calculated using the formula:
$$ \text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}}\right) \times 100
\] where "Part" is 1.2 and "Whole" is $\frac{3}{4}$.

STEP 2

First, express $\frac{3}{4}$ as a decimal to make the calculation easier.
$$\frac{3}{4} = 0.75$$

STEP 3

Now, use the percentage formula to find out what percentage 1.2 is of 0.75.
$$\text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{1.2}{0.75}\right) \times 100$$

STEP 4

Calculate the division $\frac{1.2}{0.75}$.
$$\frac{1.2}{0.75} = 1.6$$

Multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage.
$$1.6 \times 100 = 160$$ Therefore, 1.2 is 160% of $\frac{3}{4}$.
