How do u do percentage​

Mathematics
1 answer:
lbvjy [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ill try to break this down, simply:

When we talk about percentages we are talking about how much part of something we have and the percent sign is a just a symbol representing that.

Lets say we have 2 out of 10 apples and we need to convert this to a percentage

First think about how many apples we have in total... and that would be 10, and then how many apples we currently have being 2:

So if we put the part that we have over the whole thing we get:

\frac{2}{10}

So now lets turn this into a decimal, when its something over 10 its really easy, all we have to do is move the decimal back one place!

So we have 2 and if we move the decimal back one place we get .2 or 0.2

Now we have our decimal, to convert this into a percentage all we have to do is multiply our decimal by 100

So:

0.2 x 100 = 20%

All you do when you multiply by 100 is move the decimal back over 2 places one place for each zero so:

0.2 --> 2. --> 20.

Which gives us again 20%

Y(a -b) =c(y+ a); y
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

y = ac / (a - b - c)

Step-by-step explanation:

y(a - b) = c(y + a)

Distribute

ay - by = cy + ac

Subtract cy from both sides

ay - by - cy = ac

Factor out y

y(a - b - c) = ac

Divide both sides by (a - b - c)

y = ac / (a - b - c)
