Question

What percent of 105 is 84?
i got the answer 5.95238095 but it was wrong can some one help me

Answer 1

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 105 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 105, so we can write it down as 100%=105.
4. We know, that x% equals 84 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=84.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=105
2) x%=84
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=105/84
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 84 is what percent of 105

100%/x%=105/84
(100/x)*x=(105/84)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.25*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.25) to get x
100/1.25=x
80=x
x=80

now we have:
84 is 80% of 105

Answer 2

Let the percent be \(x\)..

Answer 3

wow that helps so much

Answer 4

\[x \% of 105 = 84 \\ \frac{x}{100} \times 105 = 84 \\ x = \frac{84 \times 100}{105}\]
