"What is ninety percent of two hundred fifty?" Which equation could be used to answer this question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x equals zero point nine times two hundred fifty ninety equals two hundred fifty x x equals zero point zero nine times two hundred fifty two hundred fifty equals x times ninety

OpenStudy (abbles):

90 percent as a decimal is .9 so 250 x .9 = 225. That is your answer. 225 is 90 percent of 250.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The equation would be .90 * 250 because when converting a percent to a decimal you move over 2 places to the right.

OpenStudy (abbles):

So it's answer A.
