You have to divide the number by the denominator of the fraction. For example, if you want to find 1/5 of 20, you have to divide 20 by 5 and that tells you that 1/5 of 20 is 4.
Notice that half of the coefficient of x is (1/2)(-4), or -2.
Then x^2 - 4x becomes
x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 = 0, or (x -2)^2 = 4. Then x = -2 plus or minus 2, and the two roots are 0 and -4.
Thus, add 4 to both sides to obtain x^2 - 4x + 4 = 4.
To work out 7% of 600, this is what you do
7/100 x 600
this will give you your answer
7% of 600 = 42
