108 is 36% of what number? Write and solve a proportion to solve the problem.

First write the proportion to find the missing value, which I will replace it with n.
108/n = 36/100
Next write the cross products. So, 36n = 108 x 100 = 10,800
divide each side by 36.
36n/36 = 10,800/36
Lastly simplify. Which will be, n = 300.
so my answer is 108 is 36% of 300.

Many parents don't have the time, patience, or knowledge to help with homework. We're glad we can help you.

You're doing great!

Listen kids, I know it's lonely when parents are not acting like you want them to or how you know they should. Try to not turn that feeling back to yourselves. It's NOT YOU that's the issue. You are not unlovable or "too much trouble" or any negative thing at all. Remember you belong here on Earth and will be OK, keep trying to find help for you issues. Keep reaching out to the adults in your schools and churches for assistance, read books for life advice. Some parents have a lot of troubles because of things you don't know and because life is hard for grown ups. That's no an excuse for bad behavior but it is the truth and you have to work with it. Try to be patient and not turn the negativity on yourselves or fight with them. You are precious and lovable. Love yourselves truly even when it feels that no one cares about you some days. YOU CARE ABOUT YOU. I was a child who grew up abused and neglected and I'm here to tell you it's hard. However, it will only get worse if you ALSO do bad things to yourself like down talk, forgetting about school, stop trying or put yourselves in harm to get attention. So care about yourself even if the grown ups around you are distant or unreliable. Center yourself on being the best person you can be in your family and to yourself. Love, a mom who knows <3

Yes, you're right.

Thank you Ms. Sue I wish i had my father helping me but he dont really care about me so i have to ask people to help me

Thanks Ms. Sue

Let the number = x

Then, it would be: (x*36)/100 = 108

x*36 = 10800

x = 10800/36

x = 300
