Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers are:

a, b, and c

the equation would be:

a+b+c = 131

c = 4a

b = a+5

=>

a + a+5 +4a = 131

6a +5 = 131

6a = 131-5

6a = 126

a= 126/6

a = 21

b = a+5 = 21+5

b = 26

c = 4a = 4(21)

c = 84

What percent of 150 is 9?
irga5000 [103]
One of the ways to find the answer is to find how much 1 percent of 150 is. To do that we just have to divide 150 by 100:

150 / 100 = 1.5

Now we can divide 9 by 1.5 to know how much percent of 150 it is:

9 / 1.5 = 6

Let's check it:

150 * 6% = 150 * 6/100 = 15 * 6/10 = 3 * 6/2 = 18/2 = 9

It's correct then :)
