Question

What percent of 355 is 71

Answer 1

20%

Explanation:

Here we are required to find the percentage of 355 that makes 71.

Let the percentage be x

Hence x% of 355 = 71

We are going to follow the rule which says

x%=
`(x)/(100)`

or we can say that

`(x)/(100)*355=71`

`(355x)/(100)=71`

Multiplying both sides by 100

355x=7100

dividing both sides by 355 we get

`(355x)/(355)=(7100)/(355)`

x=20

Hence 20% of 355 is 71

Therefore our answer is 20%
