Question

What number is 175% of 76?

Answer 1

1.75x = 0.76

Answer 2

What's 100% of 10? What's 50% of 10? You already know the answer is 10 for the first question and 5 for the second question I asked, right? So let's try to figure out how to get there.

So when we have 100% we multiplied 10 by 1. When we got 5, we multiplied 10 by .5 to get 5. So now we sort of see a pattern. You can take your percentage and move the decimal over 2 places to the left and multiply that decimal by your number. If you ever forget, just think of simple examples like this to figure it out again! Easy peasy!

\[\frac{ is }{ of } = \frac{ Percent }{ 100 }\]

Answer 9

Thank you so much! Yes I have it now! :)

Answer 10

It also works to do the literal interpretation:

\[\frac{175}{100} \times 76\]

Reduce, simplify and multiply

Answer 11

\[\frac{(25)(7)}{(25)(4)}(76)\]\[=\frac{7}{4}(76)\]\[=7(19)\]

Answer 12

Oh, pardon me, my friend... @spanntasticfam make sure you put 175%... I accidentally put 176%.
