Question

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

60

Explanation:

To make this problem a little easier, think of 80% as 4/5.

(4/5 = 48/x) ~the unknown is represented by x

After cross multiplying, or "the butterfly method" you would get:

4x = 5(48)

4x = 240

240/4 = 60!

Answer 2

The answer is 60

Explanation:

How to find what percent of X is Y. Use the percentage formula: Y/X = P% Example: What percent of 60 is 12? Important! The result will always be in decimal form, not percentage form.

(i know this isn’t the clearest formula but its what i used)
