To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.
1. We assume, that the number 45.5 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 45.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 45.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.81% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.81%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 45.5=100%
2) x=6.81%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
45.5/x=100%/6.81%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for what is 6.81% of 45.5
45.5/x=100/6.81
(45.5/x)*x=(100/6.81)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
45.5=14.684287812041*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.684287812041) to get x
45.5/14.684287812041=x
3.09855=x
x=3.09855
now we have:
6.81% of 45.5=3.09855
Hope this helps!
Is this a test because you said your out of time
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
You want a number that if it is multiplied by 3 1/3 the result will be 10. Let the number be x
3 1/3 * x = 10 Change to a mixed number
10/3 * x = 10 Multiply by 3/10
(10/3)*x * 3/10 = 10 * 3/10 Combine
x = 10*3 / 10 Simplify
x = 30/10 = 3
