I don't understand how to solve this problem. If you could tell me how to do it that would be great!!
48 is 30% of what number?
14.4
18
62.5
160
Make a ratio and solve for x:
48/x = 30/100
remember % means 'per 100'
% means 1 / 100
48 % of 30 = ?
48 % = 48 / 100
48 % of 30 = [48 / 100] * 30
= [48*30] / 100
= 1440 / 100
]
= 14.40
thus 48% of 30 = 14.40
So D
Oh ok Thanks and also I normally do use proportions but this time i cannot use proportions...
A is incorrect. Read the problem carefully. It's not asking for 30% of 48!
