4 0
Percent means parts out of 100
15%=15/100=0.15
'of' means multiply

therefor
15% of x equals 12 means
0.15 times x=12
divide both sides by 0.15
x=80



the number is 80

The scale drawing of a concrete pad has a length of 9.1 cm, a depth of 2.2 cm and a width of 3.8 cm.
pogonyaev

Answer:

242 cm  

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the scale factor

A scale factor (SF) is the ratio of two corresponding lengths in similar figures.

SF = actual distance/scale distance

If the scale width is 3.8 cm,

SF = 418 cm/3.8 cm = 110

2. Calculate the actual depth

110 = actual depth/2.2 cm

Actual depth = 110 × 2.2 cm = 242 cm
