I think you divide 200 by 4 and then times by 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think the answer is A).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You would cross multiply x/200 * 4/100

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer would be 8 dollars

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 200*4/100

OpenStudy (timbo5lice):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

You need to find 4% of 200. Simply multiply 4% by 200. % means "divide by 100", so 4% means 4/100 Multiply 4/100 * 200 4/100 * 200 = 8
