I tried again with another question: What percent of 62 is 58? Use the percent equation (which is part=percent times whole)
58=62x
Divide 62 on both sides. I rounded to the nearest tenth and got 93.6%
Your method is right, but I get 93.5%.
Okay, thanks
You're welcome.
58/62 = x/100
x = 93.54 % which rounds to 93.5 %
To find what percent of 62 is 58 using the percent equation, you can follow these steps:
1. Write the percent equation: part = percent x whole.
In this case, we want to find the percent, so we can write:
58 = percent x 62.
2. Divide both sides of the equation by 62 to isolate the percent.
58 / 62 = percent x 62 / 62.
This simplifies to:
0.9355... = percent.
3. Convert the decimal to a percent by multiplying by 100.
Multiply 0.9355... by 100 to get:
93.55...%.
4. Round the percent to the nearest tenth.
Rounding 93.55... to the nearest tenth gives us:
93.6%.
Therefore, approximately 93.6% of 62 is equal to 58.
