200 is 40% of 500. 
45 is 25% of 180.

I've been waiting for someone to ask this question.  It's one of my favorite questions to answer.

percent means out of 100 so 1% = 1/100 and 40%=40/100 or 1/25
so for percent of a number, 'of' means multiply so 40% of 500= 40/100 times 500 or 20000/100 or 200



if you multiply a fraction by its recipricol (the number fliped upside down) the you will get 1 so if you multiply 1/2 by 2/1 then you will get 1

thus
percent is out of 100 so 1%=1/100  25%=25/100
if you represent 45 out of something as 45/x then you multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction that is supposed to be equal (1/2 =2/4) then you will get 1
so 45/x times reciprocal of 100/25 then you will get 1/1 or 4500/25x
so you divide to find x and get 180
so 45 is 25% of 180


The following is extra
   as stated above 'of' can be taken as multiply so
   45 is 25% of 180 can be rewriten as
   45=25/100 times 180
   but we don't know that 180 is the answer so we replace it with x then            solve for x

PLEASE HELP
jeka94

Let us try A

If we put x = -3 , then y= 27-36+3+1=-5 , thus it us not the polynomial of given points

Now moving onto B

If x = -3, then y =-81-27+36-3-1=76

If x= -1 , then y=-1-1+4-1-1=0

If x =0, then y=-0-0+0-0-1=-1

If x =1, then y= -1+1+4+1-1=4

Thus it is also not the polynomial with given point.

Now onto c

x= -3 , y=81+27-36+3+1=76

x=0, y = 0+0+0+0+1=1

x= -1 , y = 1+1-4+1+1=0

x=1 , y= 1-1-4-1+1=-4

x=2, y=16-8-16-2+1=-9

Hence C is the polynomial of given points
