Step-by-step explanation:. The first says “I know that 10 is one-tenth of 100. I will therefore divide 50 by 10. The answer is 5”.
This is fine when the numbers are relatively simple. But suppose the numbers are more complicated.
What is 22% of 46?
Now it’s much less straightforward. You can’t just work out what 22% is, expressed as a fraction, and anyway, it’s not a simple fraction.
Instead, you have to divide 46 into 100 equal parts, and work out what 22 of them would be when added together.
So: 46 ÷ 100 = 0.46 [remember, when you divide by 100, you move the decimal point two places to the left].
0.46 × 22 = 10.12
Answer: 22% of 46 is 10.12.
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
you need to put a picture or type the equations of the proportion cause nobody will know what you mean
Step-by-step explanation:
which equation is a true proportion
what are the equations?
Strength [is proportional to] d^2
strength1/(d1)^2 = strength2/(d2)^2
800kg/(2cm)^2 = strength2/(3cm)^2
strength2 = 800 kg * (3 cm)^2/(2 cm)^2
strength2 = 800 kg * 3^2/2^2
strength2 = 800 kg * 9/4
strength2 = 1800 kg
