Question

Please help!



My online school told me the answers for this already, but I don't exactly understand what the question is asking for:


There are two whole numbers between 35 and 40 that are 60% of another whole number. What are the numbers and what are the numbers of which they are 60%? Explain how you found the answer.

Answer 1

well 60 percent of a number that is whol is like 46 but in your case it would be 37

Answer 2

So 60% turned into a decimal is .60

So take each number between 35 and 40 and multiply that by .60.


35 x .60 = ?
36 x .60 = ?

and so on.

If you get a whole number, then yeah. If you get a decimal number, then yeah.
