To solve this you must use a proportion like so...

\frac{part}{whole} = \frac{part}{whole}

15 is a percent and percent's are always taken out of the 100. This means that one proportion will have 15 as the part and 100 as the whole

We want to know out of what number is 13.5 15% of. This means 13.5 is the part and the unknown (let's make this x) is the whole.

\frac{13.5}{x} =\frac{15}{100}

Now you must cross multiply

13.5*100 = 15*x

1350 = 15x

To isolate x divide 15 to both sides

1350/15 = 15x/15

90 = x

This means that 15% of 90 is 13.5

Hope this helped!

Answer:

20 + 35x

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression 5(4 + 7x) and are asked to distrbute it.

When distributing, it's very simple, all you have to do is multiply the number outside the parenthesis with the numbers inside the parenthesis.

Therefore :

(5(4) + 5(7x))

20 + 35x
