70 is 350% of what number? Choose the correct solution.
Dang I can't open that on mobile
Wait I can it's just weird nvm
Ok so 100% of a number is just that number (for example 100% of 15 is just 15 So 350% would be 3.5 times that number (350% of 1 would be 3.5) Does this make sense?
no
not really
x = 500
wait no it does
answer is 500
@Sacredcheats the answer is 500. Hope you find this helpful. I will type the explanation right now:
We have, 70% × x = 350 or, 70 100 × x = 350 Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 70, we have x = 350 × 100 70 x = 500
but it's not asking for the answer and even if it was that's kinda wrong
It's not wrong I'm a math teacher
500 is not an answer choice
20
70 is the number after it was increased by 350%
did you open the link
Yes
The answer is the first choice
it's not a whole number
@aqual please do not just give the answer. I was having them work towards it so that they may also learn it c: Same goes for you @esthersmartie
The answer is the first choice, I guarantee it.
@Angel Ah, I got you man. I understand. Hope you forgive me, as a math teacher I should've thought of it the same way you did.
if my test says it aint (which it won't because i am not picking it)
Ehhhh
You don't have to get a 100%, you just need to trust yourself and be confident in your answer.
huh
You know what I mean
Ok so please go back to what I said \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @AngeI Ok so 100% of a number is just that number (for example 100% of 15 is just 15 So 350% would be 3.5 times that number (350% of 1 would be 3.5) Does this make sense? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) Use this to try to figure out which answer choice it is o:
no i don't that is why I asked
sorry angel
245?
70/245
right?
nope
No, as 70 is the number after the 350% increase
they were wrong aqual and the math teacher were wrong
