Each of the following is equivalent to 75% of 60 EXCEPT
A. 0.75 × 60
B. 0.6 × 75
C. 60 × 15
20
D. 75 × 6
100
E. 60 × 3
4
Im think E
75% of 60 = 0.75 * 60 = 45
60/4 * 3 = 15 * 3 = 45
E is not the right answer.
So would it be
C. 60 × 15
20
I think I'm in agreement with Toni, what do you think Ms.Sue?
What is 60/20?
What is 60/20 * 15?
45 so that would not be correct.
You're right; C is wrong.

75% of 60 is 45.
so, which option is not equal 45 that one is wrong.
To solve this problem, we need to find the value that is equivalent to 75% of 60.
Option A presents the expression 0.75 × 60. To find the result, we multiply 0.75 by 60, which results in 45.
Option B presents the expression 0.6 × 75. By multiplying 0.6 by 75, we get 45 as well.
Option C presents the expression (60 × 15) ÷ 20. By multiplying 60 by 15, we get 900. Then, by dividing 900 by 20, we get 45.
Option D presents the expression (75 × 6) ÷ 100. By multiplying 75 by 6, we get 450. Then, by dividing 450 by 100, we get 4.5.
Option E presents the expression (60 × 3) ÷ 4. By multiplying 60 by 3, we get 180. Then, by dividing 180 by 4, we get 45.
Therefore, the expression that is NOT equivalent to 75% of 60 is Option D (75 × 6 ÷ 100), which results in 4.5 rather than 45.
