If you translate this problem literally, it is saying, “72 is what percent of 288?”. And the equational translation of that is 72 = (x/100) • 288
[ “is” means equal to (=) // “what” means x or another variable // “percent” means divided by 100” // “of” means multiplication. ]
Then you solve that equation.
(you can check it by googling what is 25% of 288. )

A chemist is using 336 milliliters of a solution of acid and water. If 19.4 % of the solution is acid, how many milliliters of a
denpristay [2]

Answer:

65.2 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity 336 milliliters is the 100% of the solution. We can represent this information on a table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100%

we are told that 19.4% of this solution is acid, and we need to know how many milliliters represents this percentage. I will call the number of milliliters of acid on the solution 'x', and updating the last table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100

     x             ⇔            19.4%

We can solve this problem for 'x' using the<u> rule of three</u> which is to multiply the cross quantities on the table (336 by 19.4) and then divide by the remaining amount (100):

x = 336(19.4)/100

x = 6,518.4/100

x = 65.184

which rounding to the nearest tenth is: 65.2 milliliters
