Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
EXAMPLE #1:
What number is 75% of 4? (or Find 75% of 4.)
The PERCENT always goes over 100.
(It's a part of the whole 100%.)
4 appears with the word of:
It's the WHOLE and goes on the bottom.
A proportion showing one fraction with PART as the numerator and 4 as the denominator equal to another fraction with 75 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator.
We're trying to find the missing PART (on the top).
In a proportion the cross-products are equal: So 4 times 75 is equal to 100 times the PART.
The missing PART equals 4 times 75 divided by 100.
(Multiply the two opposite corners with numbers; then divide by the other number.)
4 times 75 = 100 times the part
300 = 100 times the part
300/100 = 100/100 times the part
3 = the part
A proportion showing the denominator, 4, times the diagonally opposite 75; divided by 100.
Answer:
2.34 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, we need to find how many grams in 2.34mL. To solve the problem, we must know the relationship between grams and millilitre.

Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of picking a grapefruit is the amount of grapefruits over the amount of total fruit. There are 3 grapefruits, and 6 total pieces of fruit. 3/6 is equal to 1/2, so the probability is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%.
