It should be a whole number.
To find a percentage of a number we multiply the percentage times the number and get the result, here we have the percentage and the result and need to find out which number it corresponds to, lets write an equation to do so and keep in mind that the percentage itself can be written in a different way:
225% = 225 out of 100 = 225/100
So we have this equation, where we call x the number we are looking for:
<span>(225%)(x) = 81
</span>(225/100)(x) = 81
so we solve for x:
225x = 81*100 = 8100
x = 8100/225
x = 36
The original number is 36, hence 225% of 36 is 81
1 pound = 16 ounces
3 pounds = 3*16 ounces
3 pounds= 48 ounces
So, he can make 48 one-ounce bags

Step-by-step explanation:
Here we need to calculate the income of this year.
We know that a year has 52 weeks. And, our payed weeks are 51, they are, the 50 weeks we work plus the one week of paid-vacation. The remaining week does not give us income, as is unpaid. So our total year income is:
51 * $615 = $31,365
So, our surplus will be our income minus our expenses:
Surplus = $31,365 - $31,320 = $45
Our cash surplus is $45
