11.25 lbs, if I calculated this correctly.

75lbs of food = 15% tiger's food weight
? lbs tiger= 100% tiger's body weight

So you want to take the amount of food (75lbs), divide it by the amount of the tiger's food weight (15%) and then multiply it by it's total body weight (100%)
So 75 / 15 = 5
and 5 x 100 = 500
so the tiger = 500lbs

kramer
(-y+5x3)+(7.2y-9)=6.2y+n
(-y+15)+(7.2y-9)=6.2y+n
since you're adding the two parentheses, you don't need to have them there
-y+15+7.2y-9=6.2y+n
7.2y-y +15-9 =6.2y+n
6.2y + 6 =6.2y+n
6.2y - 6.2y -n = -6
-n=-6
n=6

How do you solve 5 is _____ % of 25
Aneli [31]
Let the missing % be x.

Now, according to your question ;

5 = x% of  25

5 = x / 100 * 25

thus, 25x = 500

Thus, x = 500/25

= 20

Thus, 5 is 20% of 25.
