Answer:

11.4

20/100 = x/57

Step-by-step explanation:

It is perhaps simplest just to translate the given English sentence into a mathematical sentence.

... 20% ... ... of ... 57 ... is ... what number

... 20/100 ... × ... 57 .... = ... what number . . . . . . . . translation to math sentence

... 11.4 = what number . . . . . . . . carry out the multiplication

_____

If you're asked to write this as a proportion, you can write it like this:

\dfrac{20}{100}=\dfrac{\text{what number}}{57}

You can solve this proportion by multiplying by 57 (the denominator under "what number"). Doing so gives you the same arithmetic sentence as shown above.

Can somebody help me solve this?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

z = 3.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

sin 76°/z = sin 51°/2.6

cross-multiply to get:

z·(sin 51°) = 2.6·(sin 76°)

z = 2.6·(sin 76°) ÷ (sin 51°)

z = 3.2
