Question

What percent is $58 of $75 (to the nearest hundredth)?

Answer 1

58/75 = 58/75 x 100 % = 58 x 100/75 % = 58 x 4/3 % = 232/3 %
 

answer =77.33 %

Answer 2

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

75 -----------------> 100%

58 -----------------> x

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

$x = (\frac{58}{75}) * (100)\\x = 77.33333333$

Rounding to the nearest hundredth we have:

$x = 77.33$%

Answer:

58 is 77.33% of 75
