Use the percent formula, A=PB: A is Percent of B 30% of what number of 87%.
Need help.
proof read
perhaps 30% of x is 87 ?
.3 x = 87
x = 87/.3 = 870/3
To find out what number represents 30% of 87%, you can use the percent formula A = PB.
Step 1: Identify the given values.
A = unknown (the number we need to find)
P = 30% (which can be written as 0.30 as a decimal)
B = 87
Step 2: Plug the values into the formula and solve for A.
A = 0.30 * 87
A = 26.1
Therefore, 30% of 87 is 26.1.
