Note: I am not 100% sure that this is the correct way to solve this problem. It is just my best attempt to help. 

Keep in mind that every percentage can be made into a decimal. 12% = 0.12 because 12% is also 12/100 as a fraction.

Since a percentage is the original number multiplied by the percent, you can solve this problem by dividing the number given by the percent. Be sure to turn the percent into a decimal to make it easier. Your work should look like this:

12% = 0.12

1,000 / 0.12 = 8,333.33

That is the first step. How you have to finish the problem and find what 88% is. To do this, you can simply multiply 88%, or 0.88, times the answer you get in the first part. Your work should look like this:

88% = 0.88
0.88 * 8,333.33 = 7,333.33 

Now to check your work, you can add 7,333.33 and 1,000 to see if it equal the total of 8,333.33

7,333.33 + 1,000 = 8,333.3

Since it is equal, this is your answer.

What property out of distributive,communitive,and associative.
Vlad1618 [11]
Hello!

The Associative Property of Multiplication states the following:

a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c

The equation given in the image above follows the same form:

9 × (5 × 2) = (9 × 5) × 2

Therefore, the given equation must be representative of the Associative Property.

I hope this helps!
