Answer:  The large ____ holds 48 units.

For the diagram you could draw the small rectangle 4 squares wide and 9 squares long. that will represent something that holds 36 units.

For the large one make it 4 squares wide and 12 squares long. That will have spaces for 48 units.

Step-by-step explanation: Change the percent to a decimal and set up the equation that means 36 is 75% of some number, yet unknown, X is the unknown number.

36 = .75x  divide both sides by .75  

36/.75 = .75x/.75 . The .75 "cancels" on the right. Then use a calculator.

36 ÷ .75 = 48

x = 48
