Answer 1

144 divide by 6 multiply by 10 in that order

Answer 2

240 is the answer

Answer 3

Basically, the equation you are trying to solve is: 144 is 60% of what number.

\[\frac{ 144 }{ x } \times \frac{ 60 }{ 100 }\]


So, the formula I used is:

\[\frac{ is }{ of } x \frac{ % }{ 100 }\]

Is stands for how much of that number you know, and of stnads for the toal number.

Answer 4

It is supposed to be % over 100 for the blank formula

Answer 5

if u want to put it the scientific way that would be the answer ty mangorox

Answer 6

Answer 7

After that you cross multiply:

\[144 \times 100 = 14,400\]

\[60 \times x = 60x\]

Then, you divide by 60 on both sides:

\[14,400 \div 60 = 240\]

\[60x \div 60 = 1\]

\[ \frac{ 240 }{ 1 } = 240\]

\[x = 240\]

Answer 11

Ok, try this one:

On a particular Monday, 75% of the visitors to an art museum were students. If 90 students visited the museum, how many total visitors did the art museum had Monday?

Answer 12

So,

do you know how to set up the equation to solve this?

Answer 13

If you have 2 parts of the equation, then write it in the form that makes sense for you to begin with.
You know you have 144 students and that they make up 60% of the total.
So 144 = 60%(Total)
Get Total by itself by dividing both sides by 60% (or .60)
144/.60 = Total
240 = Total
