In the given question, the information's provided are of immense importance. Based on those given information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Let us assume the number to be = x
then
60% * x = 48
(60/100) * x = 48
6x/10 = 48
6x = 48 * 10
6x = 480
x = 480/6
   = 80
So the unknown number is 80. I hope there are no complications in the procedure shown and it is easy for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar problems in future.
