The percent proportion is a/b = p/100, where p is the percentage of the total fraction on the left side of the equation that you are trying to figure out.
We know that p=5, because p represents percentage, and the percentage 5% is equal to the fraction 5/100. Also, we know that 60 = b, or the denominator as this is the entire portion that we are trying to figure out.
a/60=5/100
Now, we need to use cross products, or multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other, and setting them equal to one another.
100 * a = 60 * 5
If we simplify by multiplying, then we get the equation:
100a = 300
When we divide the variable by the coefficient, we get the equation
a=3

Answer:
Quinn did not make a mistake. This is because everything she did is correct and also if we calculate the expression without doing anything she did, we see that she has the right answer.
From the picture, we can see that ΔLSP and ΔLRN are similar, so corresponding sides are proportionate:
LN : LP = 28:12 = 7:3
Therefore, the LRN sides is 7/3 of the corresponding side of LSP.
Then, it states that the area of LSP = 50, and area of a triangle is (1/2)bh, so we set up the equation
Area of LSP = (1/2)bh = 50 ← Remember how the corresponding sides are 7/3 of LSP? Therefore, the area of LRN:
LRN = (1/2)(7b/3)(7h/3) ← Take out the 7/3 and multiply them together
= (49/9)(1/2)bh ← From LSP, we know that (1/2)bh = 50, so plug that in
= (49/9)*50 ≈ 272.222 units ²
