50 = 15% x ?
50 divided by .15 = 333.33 (infinity)
15% of 80 = 80*15/100 = 12
Let x represent the unknown nimber. Set up the equation and solve (15% is the same as .15) .15 * x = 18 (next divide both sides by .15 to solve for x) x = 120 15% of 120 = 18
The word increase means the problem is addition: 15 + x = 27. Reorder the problem so that it is subtraction: 27 - 15 = x and solve for x. X = 12.
.15x = 6 Divide both sides by .15 6/.15 = 40 15 percent of 40 is 6.
To increase a number by a certain percent, multiply it by (1 + n/100). For example, to increase a number by 15 percent, multiply it by (1 + 15/100), or 1.15. To decrease a number by 15 percent, multiply it by (1 - 15/100), or 0.85.
7145 X 0.15 = 1071.75 To solve a % problem, convert the % to a decimal by dividing by 100, then multiply by the other number.
15% of 80 = 80*15/100 = 12
15 percent of the number 80 is equal to 12. The equation for this problem would be X x 15% = 12.
15 percent of 50 = 7.515% of 50= 15% * 50= 0.15 * 50= 7.5
The word increase means the problem is addition: 15 + x = 27. Reorder the problem so that it is subtraction: 27 - 15 = x and solve for x. X = 12.
Let x represent the unknown nimber. Set up the equation and solve (15% is the same as .15) .15 * x = 18 (next divide both sides by .15 to solve for x) x = 120 15% of 120 = 18
T represent a Number that will be part of the operation in order for you to solve this problem.
.15x = 6 Divide both sides by .15 6/.15 = 40 15 percent of 40 is 6.
15% = 0.15
To solve this you need to work out how big a number 1 percent of the number would be. So if 120 is 15 % then 1% = 120/15 = 8 Thus if 1 % of the number = 8, you need to make this up to 100% by multiplying by 100. 8*100 = 800 So the number is 800. I hope you can follow this and that you will now be able to work with %.
If 15 percent of a number N is 0.3 what is 45 percent of N
100 x 100/10 x 15/100 = 150Therefore, 15 percent of that number would be 150.
