I give medals Marnie packed 18 boxes in 3 hours, which was 72% of the total number of boxes she had to pack. How many boxes did Marnie have to pack? A. 25 B. 216 C. 13 D. 54

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

72% of x (the number of boxes) equals 18\[\Large \frac{ 72 }{ 100 } \times x = 18\]

OpenStudy (ajanijones):
