Question

1. Fifty-six percent of what is 23? What proportion would you write to solve this problem?

Answer 1

Answer:

41.07

Step-by-step explanation:

1) lets use the formula, (%/100)=is/of

so:

is=23

of=x

%=56

$\frac{56}{100} =\frac{23}{x}$

cross multiply

56x=2300

x=41.07

so the proportions I would use are:

56/100 and 23/x
