Answer:
3.8 oranges.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Our output value is 10.
Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.
Step 3: From step 1 above, 10=100%.
Step 4: Similarly, x=38%.
Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:
10=100%(1).
x=38%(2).
Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both
equations have the same unit (%); we have
10/x= 100%/38%
Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives
x/10 = 38/100
---> x=3.8$
Therefore, 38% of 10 is 3.8
