Question

166 by 50%



What's the method on doing this?​

Answer 1

50% is the same as dividing by 1/2, so you just divide 166 by 2 to get 83.

Answer 2

We need to determine 50% of 166

So,

Explanation:

Step 1: In the given case Output Value is 166.

Step 2: Let us consider the unknown value as x.

Step 3: Consider the output value of 166 = 100%.

Step 4: In the Same way, x = 50%.

Step 5: On dividing the pair of simple equations we got the equation as under

166 = 100% (1).

x = 50% (2).

(166%)/(x%) = 100/50

Step 6: Reciprocal of both the sides results in the following equation

x%/166% = 50/100

Step 7: Simplifying the above obtained equation further will tell what

is 50% of 166

x = 83%

Therefore, 50%

of 166 is 8
