7 critics liked the sequel to My Giant. This represents 10% of all critics. How many critics reviewed it in all?
A
100
B
700
C
14
D
70
To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion:
7 critics / x total critics = 10% / 100%
Cross multiplying, we get:
7 * 100% = 10% * x
700% = 10% * x
Dividing both sides by 10%, we get:
70 = x
So, there were 70 critics who reviewed the sequel to My Giant.
The answer is D) 70.
