You would bring the division over to to other side. When we switch it to the other side, it turns into a multiplication (the opposite of division). So we go from:
102 / 3 = 34
to
102 = 34 * 3
Which is C for your multiple choice! :)
Answer:
100000
Step-by-step explanation:
Total population of US is 234.88 million.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Number of people are 65 or older = 30.3 million
This represents 12.9% of total population.
Let,
x represent the total population.
12.9% of x = 30.3 million
![\frac{12.9}{100}x=30.3\ million\\0.129x=30.3\ million](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B12.9%7D%7B100%7Dx%3D30.3%5C%20million%5C%5C0.129x%3D30.3%5C%20million)
Dividing both sides by 0.129x
![\frac{0.129x}{0.129}=\frac{30.3}{0.129}\ million\\\\x=234.88\ million](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B0.129x%7D%7B0.129%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B30.3%7D%7B0.129%7D%5C%20million%5C%5C%5C%5Cx%3D234.88%5C%20million)
Total population of US is 234.88 million.
