65 is what percent of 278?​

Answer 1

The correct answer is:  " 83 $\frac{1}{3}$ % " ;  or, write as:  " 83.333 % " .

Step-by-step explanation:

65 = n/100  * 278 ? ;  Solve for "n" ;

↔  n/100 * 278 = 65 ?

 n/100 = 65/278 ;

↔ $\frac{n}{100} = \frac{65}{278}$ ;

Cross-factor multiply:

→ 278 n  = 65 * 100;

→ 278 n  = 6500 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "278" ;

 to isolate "n" on one side of the equation;

  & to solve for "n" :

_______

→  278 n / 278  = 6500 / 278 ;

to get:

 →  " n = $\frac{6500}{78} = \frac{250}{3}$ = (250 ÷ 3) = 83.333333333333...

                                                  =  83 $\frac{1}{3}$  ,

_______

The answer is:  " 83 $\frac{1}{3}$ % " ;  or, write as:  " 83.333 % " .
