    Part=Whole x Percentage

    Red Sea=Part

    Mediterranean Sea=Whole

    18%=Percentage

    So change the equation so that you solve for the whole

    Whole=Part/Percentage

    so Mediterranean Sea=453000/0.18

    Red sea = 18% of Mediterranean sea.

    453 000 km² = (18/100) * M

    453000 = 0.18M

    453000/0.18 = M

    M = 2 516 666.67 km²

    Mediterranean sea ≈ 2 516 666.67 km²
