Medal 25% of what is 44.5?

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Let's use the formula again! \(\large \rm \frac{part}{whole}~=~\frac{percent}{100}\) Percent - 25% The whole is 44.5, so plug them in! \(\large \rm \frac{part}{44.5}~=~\frac{25}{100}\) irst multiply 44.5 by 25 What is 44.5 x 25?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1112.5

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Correct! now we take the 100 and divide it with 1112.5 So what is 1112.5/100?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11.125

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Correct! That is our part

sammixboo (sammixboo):

So 11.125 is 25% of 44.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Yes!

>25% of what is 44.5? Just reread the question again, I think you are answering the wrong thing here.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

It is \[\frac{ 25 }{ 100 } \times x = 44.5\]

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

@sammixboo You didn't read the question correctly...

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

So \[x=\frac{ 44.5 \times 100 }{ 25 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

178

sammixboo (sammixboo):

sammixboo (sammixboo):

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Yes 178 is correct. :)

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Well you must not be that bad if you are a mathlete...

sammixboo (sammixboo):
