Question

4% of ____ days is 56 days

Answer 1

We know that 4% = 56 days
To work out 1% we can divide the number of days by 4, as 4% / 4 = 1%
56 / 4 = 14
1% = 14 days

What we want to find next is what 100% is
From 1%, we multiply by 100 to get 100%, we do the same to the number of days
14 x 100 = 1400 days

Answer 2

4%=4/100
4/100=56/x
(4)(14)=56, (100)(14)=1400)
4/100=56/1400
therefore 4% of 1400 days is 56 days
