Question

8% of the rides in the park are water rides. If there are 4 water rides, how many rides are there in total?

Answer 1

Let, the total ride = x
It would be: x * 8% = 4
= x * 0.08 = 4
= x = 4 / 0.08
= x = 50

In short, Your Answer would be 50

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The total rides in the park are 50 .

Explanation:

Formula

`Percentage = (Part\ value* 100)/(Total\ value)`

As given

8% of the rides in the park are water rides.

If there are 4 water rides .

Part value = 4

Percentage = 8%

Put all the values in the formula

`8= (4* 100)/(Total\ value)`

`8= (400)/(Total\ value)`

`Total\ value= (400)/(8)`

Total value = 50

Therefore the total rides in the park are 50 .
