am i right?
OpenStudy (shamil98):
Yes, you are correct.
OpenStudy (shamil98):
.75 x 96 = 72
if you want to double check.
OpenStudy (charlotte123):
72/x
75/100
Cross Multiply -----> 75(x) = 72(100)
Simplify ----> 75x = 7200
Divide By 75 On Both Sides ----> x = 96

i think it is C
OpenStudy (shamil98):
Use this formula:
\[\huge \frac{ part }{ whole } = \frac{ \text{%} }{ 100 }\]
OpenStudy (shamil98):
\[\huge \frac{ 98 }{ x } = \frac{ 7 }{ 10 }\]
\[\huge 7x = 980\]
\[\huge x = 140\]
Now it asks what is 90% of that number?
So multiply it by .9
\[\huge 140 \times 0.9 = ?\]
