________% of 16= 12
________% of 24= 6
The answer to the second one is 25%
12/16 = 0.75 = 75%
I'll check your answer for the second problem.
To find the missing values in these equations, we need to determine the percentages that will give us the given values.
Let's start with the first equation:
x% of 16 = 12
To find x, we can set up a proportion using the given values:
x/100 = 12/16
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:
16x = 120
Dividing both sides of the equation by 16:
x = 7.5
Therefore, 7.5% of 16 is equal to 12.
Now, let's move on to the second equation:
x% of 24 = 6
Again, we'll set up a proportion:
x/100 = 6/24
Cross-multiplying:
24x = 600
Dividing by 24:
x = 25
So, 25% of 24 is equal to 6.
