Hint: 18% is close to 20%

Answer 2

18/100 x 192

Answer 3

34.56

Answer 4

was that your answer?

Answer 5

I am kind of confused because for this example that my teacher did 22% of 98 the answer was 20.

Answer 6

22% is close to 20%

98 is close to 100

Answer 7

so saying "22% of 98" is roughly close to saying "20% of 100"

Answer 8

192*.18=34.56

Answer 9

so 18% of 192 is 34.56

Answer 10

yes it is. do you understand the math behind it?

Answer 11

But I think my teacher does not want the answer in decimals

Answer 12

so you would round up to 35 because the # behind the decimal place is greater than 4

Answer 13

Ok, thanks.

Answer 14

you round both numbers 22% becomes 20 and 192 becomes 90... yould get 38
