Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
EXAMPLE #1:
What number is 75% of 4? (or Find 75% of 4.)
The PERCENT always goes over 100.
(It's a part of the whole 100%.)
4 appears with the word of:
It's the WHOLE and goes on the bottom.
A proportion showing one fraction with PART as the numerator and 4 as the denominator equal to another fraction with 75 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator.
We're trying to find the missing PART (on the top).
In a proportion the cross-products are equal: So 4 times 75 is equal to 100 times the PART.
The missing PART equals 4 times 75 divided by 100.
(Multiply the two opposite corners with numbers; then divide by the other number.)
4 times 75 = 100 times the part
300 = 100 times the part
300/100 = 100/100 times the part
3 = the part
A proportion showing the denominator, 4, times the diagonally opposite 75; divided by 100.
Answer:
.8
Step-by-step explanation:
5 red marbles, 2 Green marbles and 3 black marbles = 10 marbles

=8/10
decimal form = .8
Answer:
8
(
x − 7
) (
x + 4
)
Step-by-step explanation:
As a formula, you're saying 4*(n-7)=32
This solves to n-7 = 8, so n=15
