Question

how do i get 32 is 40 percent of what number? A. 12.8 B. 128 C. 80 D. 800

Answer 1

32=40/100*X..... solve for x

Answer 2

So if you set this up, you have 32=40% of x. 40% is also equal to 0.4, so 32=0.4x. This gives you an easy equation to solve--just get x alone on one side, and you'll have the answer. I hope this helps!
