Question

Write a percent porportion and solve each number the numbers are 22 is 44% of what number?

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we express the percentage x% in the form of ratio then it can be written as $\frac{x}{100}$.

Now, it is asked which number if we make 44 % will give 22.

Let the number is given by x.

Then expressing the % as ratio we can write $\frac{22}{x} = \frac{44}{100}$

⇒ $x=\frac{22 \times 100}{44} = 50$ ( Answer )
