Answer:  The answer is:  " <u> </u><u>45 </u>  % "  .    

________________________________________________

               →    " Twenty-seven is <u> 45 </u> % of 60. "

________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

________________________________________________

The question asks:

 " 27 is what % {percentage] of 60 " ?  ;

________________________

So:  " 27 =  (n/100) * 60 " ;  Solve for "n" ;

________________________________________________

Method 1:

________________________________________________

  →   (n/100) * 60 = 27 ;

Divide each side by 60 :

 →   [ (n/100)  * 60 ] / 60 = 27 /60 ;

to get:

 →    (n/100) = 27/60 ;

Now:  Cross-factor multiply:

 →  60n = (27)*(100) ;

to get:

 → 60n = 2700 ;

Divide each side by "60" ;

→  60n = 2700/ 60 ;

to get:  n = 45 ;

________________________

 →  The answer is:  45 % .    

   →  " Twenty-seven is <u>45 %</u> of 60."

________________________________________________

Method 2:

________________________________________________

The question asks:

 " 27 is what % {percentage] of 60 " ?

________________________

To solve this problem:

Rephrase this question as:

________________________

" 27 is 60% of what number ? "

 →  The answer will be the same!

________________________

→  27 = (60/100)* n ;   Solve for "n" ;

Multiply each side of the equation by "100" ; to eliminate the fraction:

→  100 * 27 = 100 * [ (60/100)* n ] ;

 to get:

   →   2700 = 60n ;

↔  60n = 2700 ;

Divide Each Side of the equation by "60" ;

    →   60n/60 = 2700 / 60 ;

to get:  n = 45 ;

________________________________________________

→  The answer is:  45 % .    

       →  " Twenty-seven is <u>45 %</u> of 60."

________________________________________________

Method 2:  Variant 1 of 2:

________________________________________________

When we have:

→  27 = (60/100)* n ;   Solve for "n" ;

________________________

Note that:  "(60/100) = (60÷ 100) = (6 ÷ 10)" ;   since:  in "(60/100)" ;  the "zero" from the "<u>numerator</u>" cancels out;  <u>And</u>:  the "last zero" in "100" — from the "<u>denominator</u>" cancels out;  since we are dividing "each side" of the fraction by "10" ;

  →   "(60÷10) / (600÷10)"  =  " 6/10 " ;  

  →   " (6/10)" ; that is;  "six-tenths"} ;  

  →     can be represented by:  " 0.6 " ;

  →  {by convention;  but specifically, here is the explanation} — as follows:

________________________

  →   "(6/10)" =  " (6 ÷ 10) " ;  

<u>Note</u>:  When dividing a number by "10" ;  we take the original number; and move the decimal point to the left; & then we rewrite that number as the "answer".  

<u>Note</u>:  When multiplying or dividing by a positive, non-zero integer factor of "10" that has at least 1 (one) "zero" after that particular factor of "10".  We can get the answer by taking the original number & moving the decimal point the number of spaces as designated by the number of zeros following the particular [aforementioned factor of "10".].

We move the decimal point to the right if we are multiplying;  and to the left  if we are dividing.  In this case, <u>we are dividing</u> "6" by "10 " :

 →  " 6   ÷  10  =  ? " ;  

 →  " 6.  ÷ 10 =  ? " ;

   We take the: " 6. " ;  and move the decimal point "<u>one space backward [i.e. "to the left</u>"];  since we are <u>dividing by "</u><u>10</u><u>"</u> ;

 →  to get:  " .6 " ;  & we rewrite this value as "0.6" in a rewritten equation:

________________________

So; we take our equation:

→  27 = (60/100)*n ;  And rewrite—substituting "0.6" for

"(60/100)"— as follows:

________________________

→  27 = (0.6)n ;  ↔ (0.6) n = 27 ;

Multiply each side of the equation by "10" ; to eliminate the decimal:

   →  10 * [ (0.6)n ]  = 27 * 10 ;

to get:

  →  6n = 270 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "6" ; to isolate "n" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "n" ;

 →  6n / 6  =  270 / 6 ;

to get:   n = 45 ;

________________________________________________

→  The answer is:  45 % .    

      →  " Twenty-seven is <u>45 %</u> of 60."

________________________________________________

Method 2 (variant 2 of 2):

________________________________________________

We have the equation:  27 = (60/100)* n ;   Solve for "n" ;

________________________

<u>Note</u>:  From Method 2 (variant) 1 of 2— see above):

________________________

<u>Note</u>:  Refer to the point at which we have:

________________________

→   " {  (60÷10) / (600÷10)"  =  " (6/10) " ;  that is;  "six-tenths"} ;

________________________

Note that the fraction— "(6/10)" ;  can be further simplified:

→  "(6/10)" =  "(6÷2) / (10÷2)" = "(3/5)" ;

Now, we can rewrite the equation;

→ We replace "(60/100)" ;  with:  "(3/5)" :

    →  27 = (3/5)* n ;   Solve for "n" ;

↔ (3/5)* n = 27 ;  

↔    (3n/5) = 27 ;

Multiply Each Side of the equation by "5" ;

→  5* (3n/5) = 27 * 5 ;  

to get:

→   3n = 135 ;

Divide Each side of the equation by "3" ;  to isolate "n" on one side of the equation;  & to solve for "n" ;

→  3n / 3 = 135 / 3  ;

to get:   n = 45 ;

________________________________________________

 →  The answer is:  45 % .    

       →  " Twenty-seven is <u>45 %</u> of 60."

        Wishing you the best in your academic endeavors

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

27 of 60 is 45%

Working out in percentage :

27 of 60 can be written as :

\frac{27}{60}

Multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 100 :

\frac{27}{60} *\frac{100}{100}= \frac{45}{100}=45%

So the answer to your question is 27 of 60 is 45 %

Given: ABCD parallelogram BK ⊥ AD , AB = 6, AK = 3 Find: m∠A, m∠B, m∠C, m∠D
Troyanec [42]

Answer: Angle A = 60°, angle B = 120°, angle C = 60°, angle D = 120°

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram for further details.

The question has given the parallelogram ABCD as having side AB measuring 6 units, side AK measuring 3 units and line BK has been drawn perpendicular to line AD. This means line AK forms a right angle at the point where it meets line AD. From the information provided and the figure derived from that, we have right angled triangle ABK with the right angle at point K, line AB equals 6 units and line AK equals 3 units.

Using angle A as the reference angle, line AK is the opposite (side facing the reference angle), line AB is the hypotenuse (line facing the right angle) and line AK is the adjacent (side that lies between the right angle and the reference angle).

Hence, using the trigonometric ratios,

Cos A = adjacent/hypotenuse

Cos A = 3/6

Cos A = 0.5

Checking with the calculator, (that is second function of Cos 0.5)

A = 60

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal (that is line AD is parallel to line BC) and therefore opposite angles are equal (that is angle A is equal to angle C).

Similarly, angle B is equal to angle D. However, angles in a quadrilateral equals 360 degrees.

Therefore, angles in parallelogram ABCD is derived as;

A + B + C + D = 360

60 + B + 60 + D = 360

120 + B + D = 360

Subtract 120 from both sides of the equation

B + D = 240

Having known that angle B equals angle D, angles B and D is derived as each half of the value 240

Angle B = 240/2

Angle B = 120

and angle D = 120

Therefore, the angles are;

A = 60, B = 120, C = 60, D = 120
