Question

128 is 74% of what number if necessary round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

Steps:
1. Do a proportion
128/x=74/100
2. Do 128 times 100 which equals 12,800
3. Do 12,800 divided by 74 which equals 172.972
4. If you rounded to the nearest hundreth, your answer would be: 172.97
(Since the 2 after the 7 was below 5, you would round down to 7)

Answer 2

74% * x = 128
x=128/74%
x=172.97 (nearest hundredth)
