Answer 2

Hey there!

`\text{35 is 28\% of what \# ?}`

`\bold{Equation: y = \% * \ \# }`

`\bold{We\ should\ now\ start\ looking\ for\ your\ unknown\ number}`

`\bold{\# =(y)/(\%)}`

`\bold{y=35}`

`\%=28`

`\bold{\#=(35)/(28\%)}`

`\text{Convert 28\% to decimal}`

`\bold{28\% =(28\%)/(100)=0.28}`

`\bold{New\ equation: (35)/(0.28)}`

`\bold{Simplify\ the\ one\ above\ and\ you\ have\ your\ mystery\ number}\uparrow`

`\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer: 125}}}\checkmark`

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
