Question

Which equation and solution represents each situation? Solutions may be rounded to the nearest tenth. What number is 74% of 58? 1 point 0.74 = n x 58; 1.3 n = 0.74 x 58; 42.9 58 = n x 1.74; 78.4 n = 74 x 58; 4,292

Answer 1

Given:

A number is 74% of 58.

To find:

The number.

Solution:

Let the unknown number be n.

The number n is 74% of 58.

$n=\dfrac{74}{100}{58}$

$n=0.74\times 58$

$n=42.92$

The required equation is $n=0.74\times 58$ and the solution (unknown number) is $n=42.92$.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
