Answer:

about  566.667  or to be exact:   1700/3

Step-by-step explanation:

85 is 15% of what number

We should translate this.

85 = 15% * (some number)

call that number x

85 = 15% *(x)

Solve for x

85 = 0.15 * x

x = 85/0.15 =  1700/3

x = 566.667

Answer:

We have, 15% × x = 85

or,  

15

100

× x = 85

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 15,

we have x = 85 ×  

100

15

x = 566.67

Define the concept of an angle and show how it should be indicated in Math (notation). Mention at least two ways.​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

An angle is denoted by the angle symbol ∠ and the three letters representing the name of the angle.

An angle is denoted by the angle symbol ∠ which is then being followed by three letters that will represent the points that form an angle.

Lets say for example, the expression ∠ABC will mean that “the angle is formed by the points A, B and C”

where the vertex of the angle is at the point B as it is in the middle.

Angles can also be of different types like:

An Acute Angle which means an angle is less than 90 degrees.

A Right Angle which means an angle which is exactly 90 degrees.

An Obtuse Angle which is an angle more than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees.

A Straight Angle which is an angle that is exactly 180 degrees.

And a Reflex Angle which is an angle greater than 180 degrees and less than 360 degrees.

Therefore, an angle is denoted by the angle symbol ∠ and the three letters representing the name of the angle.
