97.94 is 83% of what number?

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

97.94 is 83% of 118

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing number be x

97.94=83% of x

I.e, 97.94=83/100 × x

97.94=83x/100

Cross multipy 97.94/1=83x/100

We have, 97.94 × 100 = 83x × 1

9794=83x

Divide both sides by 83 to make x the subject of the formula.

9794/83=83x/83

118=x
