Answer:

350

Step-by-step explanation:

Introduction. Percent, p%

'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

p% = p 'out of one hundred',

p% is read p 'percent',

p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100

120% = 120/100 = 120 ÷ 100 = 1.2

100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1

Percentage of 120% of what number = 420?

120% × ? = 420

? =

420 ÷ 120% =

420 ÷ (120 ÷ 100) =

(100 × 420) ÷ 120 =

42,000 ÷ 120 =

350

<h2>Proof</h2><h3>How do we check the result?</h3>

If 120% × 350 = 420 =>

Divide 420 by 350...

... And see if we get as a result: 120%

Multiply a number by the fraction 100/100,

... and its value doesn't change.

100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1

n/100 = n%, any number.

Zepler [3.9K]

NO. To be a proportion, the have to get the same ratio, or the 1st fraction should equal the 2nd:

Is 3/4 =9/19? Certainly not, Hence it's not a ratio

If tñ=2ñ+3, find S10

Allisa [31]

Answer:

$S_{10}=280$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

$t_n=2n+3$ ...(1)

We need to find the value of $S_{10}$ .

Put n = 1 to find the first term.

$t_1=2(1)+3=5$

Put n = 2 to find the second term.

$t_2=2(2)+3=7$

Put n = 3 to find the third term.

$t_3=2(3)+3=9$

Put n = 10 to find the tenth term.

$t_{10}=2(10)+3=23$

It means we need to find the sum of 5,7,9,.....,23.

The formula for the sum of n terms is given by :

$S_=\dfrac{n}{2}(a+a_n)$

We have, n = 10, a = 5 and $a_n=23$

So,

$S=\dfrac{10}{2}(5+23)\\\\S_{10}=10\times 28\\\\=280$

So, the value of $S_{10}$ is equal to 280.
