Question

Yolanda has finished 45 percent of her homework and she has finished 27 problems. How many problems was Yolanda assigned

Answer 1

If 45 percent of the homework is only 27 problems, she needs to figure out this:

What is 47 percent of 60?
              or
47% x 60

Which is 27. 

So, Yolanda was assigned 60 problems.
