Answer:
400%
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a percent proportion:
600/x = 150/100
a:b = c:d
a and d are linked and b and c are linked. So if a is missing, you would do (b*c)/d to get a, if b was missing, you would do (a*d)/c to get b, etc.
So over here we do
(600*100)/150 = 60,000/150 = 400, so x = 400, so that means it's 400% of 150
We can also use benchmark fractions which I find much easier:
100% of 150 is 150.
So 200% of 150 is 300
So 300% of 150 is 450
And 400% of 140 is 600
Every time it increases by 100%, it also increases by 150 on the other side, which makes sense
Let me know if you have any questions.
