Step-by-step explanation

Since 150% represents a percentage bigger than 156, the appropiate relationship would be as follows:


Part\text{=}\frac{\text{Percentage}}{100}\cdot\text{Whole}

Where the whole number is 156 and the percentage is 150%:


\text{Part}=(150)/(100)\cdot156
\text{Part}=1.5\cdot156=234

In conclusion, the solution is 234
