because u always have to follow the question and make that into your answer, so its D because 86 does = 45 percent than n the number we are trying to find out!
OpenStudy (safa102):

OpenStudy (flygirlmandi):

OpenStudy (dayakar):
try to do it follow the instructions
OpenStudy (flygirlmandi):
wait so if 45 is considerably close to 50 which is 1/2 does that mean i have to multiply by 2 to get around the right answer ?

% means per cent or per 100
% = 1/100
15% = 15/100 = 0.15
is it clear
OpenStudy (dayakar):
45% = ?
OpenStudy (flygirlmandi):
.45
OpenStudy (dayakar):
compare with 15% which i did above
OpenStudy (dayakar):

so 45 is 0.45 but i dont see why that helps (sorry if i seem rude)
OpenStudy (dayakar):
45% of the number =86
45% * n = 86 [ we have taken the number is n]
OpenStudy (flygirlmandi):
so 86 divided by 0.45 is n (im only in 7th grade)
OpenStudy (dayakar):
45% *n = 86
0.45n = 86 [ 45% = 0.45]
is it clear then check options u can get the answer
OpenStudy (flygirlmandi):
its c?
