Answer:

The correct  number = 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number

It is given that, 20% of 'x' is 60  minutes.

To find  expression of 20% 'x'

20% = 20/100 = 1/5

expression is 1/5(x)

To find x

20% of x is 60

Therefore, 1/5(x) = 60

x/5 = 60

x = 60*5 = 300

x = 300

Therefore the number is 300
