5 = what percent of 23
5 = x% of 23
5 = (x/100)*23
5 = 23x/100
5*100 = 23x
23x = 5*100
x = 5*100/23
x = 21.739
5 is ≈ 21.739% of 23
Answer:
He solved 75% of the puzzles!
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, let's look at our fraction 18 out of 24. We can see that they are both even numbers, so at worst, we can divide the entire fraction by two. However, they have a GCF of six, so we will use that.
18 3
---- divided by 6 = ----
24 4
Now that we have the fraction 3/4, we can turn that into a percentage!
3/4 is 0.75. To get the percentage, we multiply that by 100--now we have 75%.
I'm pretty sure the answer is 5 because I did 50% of 50 which is 5
bearing in mind that an x-intercept is when the graph touches the x-axis and when that happens y = 0, and a y-intercept is when the graph touches the y-axis and when that happens x = 0.
