1) First, you would need to create an equation for this problem. Let x represent the unknown percentage.
= 
Next, you would cross multiply.
185x = 3,500
Now, all you would have to do is isolate the x. To do this, you would divide both sides by 185.
x = <span>18.918%
Your answer was correct!
2) </span>First, you would need to create an equation for this problem. Let x represent the unknown 85%.
<span> = </span>
<span>
</span>Next, you would cross multiply.
100x = 16150<span>
</span>Now, all you would have to do is isolate the x. To do this, you would divide both sides by 100.
x = 161.5
3) First, you would need to create an equation for this problem. Let x represent the unknown percentage.
=
Next, you would cross multiply.
128x = 2,400
Now, all you would have to do is isolate the x. To do this, you would divide both sides by 128.
x = 18.75%
I hope this helps!
