What number is 15% of 80? use percent proportions

1 answer:

8 0

!5% is equivalent to 15 parts over the whole 100 part. It is written in proportions as 15/100.

Similarly, you need to find how many parts in 80 are equivalent to 15%or 15/100. So, just equate both equation with x as an unknown.

x/80 = 15/100
x = (15/100)*80
x = 12

Thus, the 15% of 80 is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle BCD , with b, c, d as the sides of triangle.

Sine rule states when we we divide side b by the sine of angle B then it is equal to side c divided by the sine of angle C and also equal to side d divided by the sine of angle D.

Using Sine rule,

$\frac{b}{\sin B}=\frac{c}{\sin C}=\frac{d}{\sin D}$
