It does, use the calculator if you still don't believe me. It equals 0.55555555 (repeated) then 6. Rounded, 0.56.

0.56 x 100? Exactly.

Answer 9

@MissSmartiez ????

Answer 10

If we were to do '80%' for the answer, I don't think it would be correct.

Answer 11

Turn it into a decimal.

0.8 x 90 = 72 correct?...

But

0.56 x 90 = 50.4. Which is 50 rounded to the nearest whole.

Answer 12

80 percent of 50 is 40, so 50+40=90. What are you trying to say??

Answer 13

Read what I posted above.

Answer 14

No your analysis is wrong.

Answer 15

How so.

By turning the percent into decimal terms, it still is correct,


Do you even know what I am doing? Converting. I don't even know what you are possibly doing. Care to enlighten me?
