OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct @skullpatrol

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

I only see the one equation? 1.fifty equals p percent times ninety.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes the other 2 I figured out but I just can't seem to figure this one out.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

$$\huge 50=\frac{p}{100}(90)$$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I think it would be B?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Why?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

50 is p% of 90

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

I agree :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is B 90 is the whole number.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Yes, 50 is a percentage of the whole number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
