24 = x% * 32
24= x/100 * 32
Multiply 100 on both sides.
2400 = x * 32
32x = 2400
Divide 32 on both sides.
x = 2400/32
x = 75
75 percent<span> of 32 is 24</span>
To work it out:
(20200 + 14500 + 18800 + 9300 + 2200) divide by the number of regions, in this case 5.
The answer is 13000 which is A
Basically the mean is adding all the numbers divided by the amount of numbers you added. So in this case adding the data of the 5 regions divided by 5.
Hope to have helped :)
If you set up a proportion, this will make sense.

Now, Cross Multiply
6x = 12.5
x = 25/12
