think it may be 1100.736 because you would multiply the three numbers
36 = 75% of what?
36 = 75% of x
36 = 0.75x
0.75x = 36
x = 36/0.75
x = 48
Therefore 36 is 75 percent of 48
Hope this explains it.
40 170,000,000,000
----- = --------------------------
100 x
Multiply diagonally to solve
So you get 40x = 17,000,000,000,000
Then divide each side by 40 to get x alone
So the answer is 42,500,000,000,000
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
#1: 4x - 8 = 16 (You want to remove -8)
#2: 4x = 24 (In order to remove -8 you need to cancel it out, add 8 to -8, also add 8 to 16)
#3: 4x = 24 (Now you need to get the x by itself, divide 4x by 4 to only get x and also divide 24 by 4)
#4: x = 6
Rule of Thumb: If you do something to one side, to it to the other :)
