Take that certain number we are looking for as 'n'
38% ⇒ 0.38
0.38n = 152
Divide by 0.38
0.38n = 152
/0.38 /0.38
n = 400
So 38% of 400 is 152.
Sometimes when you’re doing math, it’s easier to line your numbers up when you have your ratio as a decimal! Hope it helped
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of two squares may be represented by the formula: a^2-b^2,
which can be factored as (a+b)(a-b)
A perfect square trinomial may be represented by the formula: a^(2)-2ab+b^2 or a^(2)+2ab+b^2, depending on the sign of b
if b is negative: use the formula a^(2)-2ab+b^2, which can be factored as (a-b)*(a-b) or (a-b)^(2)
if b is positive: use the formula a^(2)+2ab+b^2, which can be factored as (a+b)*(a+b) or (a+b)^(2)
