Question

use the basic proportion p/100=a/bto solve the following brown for the unknown quantity. round your answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary ___% of 67 is 67

Answer 1

We have the basic proportion:

`(P)/(100)=(A)/(B)`

Where P is the percentage, A is the "part" and B is the "whole" (P% of B is A). From the problem, we identify:

`\begin{gathered} A=67 \\ B=67 \end{gathered}`

Then, using the proportion above to find the percentage:

`\begin{gathered} (P)/(100)=(67)/(67) \\ P=100\text{\%} \end{gathered}`
