Question

Set up a proportion and use cross multiplication to solve. 22% of 50 is .a0

Answer 1

The answer is 11. 0.22 x 50 is 11.

Answer 2

11

Explanation:

Given : 22% of 50 is
`a_0`

To Find: Set up a proportion and use cross multiplication to solve

Solution:

22% of 50 is
`a_0`

First set up a proportion

`22\% * 50 = a_0`

`(22)/(100)= (a_0)/(50)`

Thus the proportion is
`(22)/(100)= (a_0)/(50)`

Now solve it further using cross multiplication.

`(22)/(100) * 50= a_0`

`(22)/(2)= a_0`

`11= a_0`

Hence 22% of 50 is 11

So,
`a_0=11`
