Explain how to use proportional reasoning to find 35% of 600

1 answer:

8 0

$\frac{35}{100} = \frac{x}{600}$

This is the equation we would use for this problem.

Now when we cross multiply, we get:
35(600)=100x

Simplify:
21000=100x

Divide each side by 100 to get x b itself:
210=x

So, as you can see, 210 is 35% of 600
