Question

What percent of 50 is 85

Answer 1

Hi!

I like to think of this as " 85 = what percent of 50?" We can represent the percent as a variable, and "of" means multiplication, therefore:

80 = 50x

Now, divide both sides by 50.

This is 1.6

To get this as a percentage we multiply by 100.

1.6 x 100 = 160%
