There is a percent formula for all of these types of percent problems.
It is : is/of = %/100
224 is what % of 640
is = 224
of = 640
% = x
now just sub
224/640 = x/100
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(640)(x) = (224)(100)
640x = 22400
x = 22400/640
x = 35......so 224 is 35% of 640
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-10=4 add 10 to both sides
2x=14 divide both sides by 2
x=7
I believe the answer is 1/x-4
This is because the x-5 on the numerator and denominator cancel out
You would set this up as Part÷Whole=Percent÷100
Part=117
Whole= X
Percent=78
117÷X=78÷100
Set these up as fractions and cross multiply. You will get 117×100=78X
117×100=11,700
Divide both sides by 78 and you get x=150

To factor, we always have to look for common factors in the numbers given to us. In this case, in 1/2 and 6, the common factor is 1/2. Therefore, we will have to factor like so:
1/2d + 6 = 1/2 (d + 3)
Hope this helps!
