Question

What percentage is 75 meters of 120 meters

Answer 1

Answer: 62.5%

Explanation:

We know that a decimal times 100 becomes a percentage. We can also set up an equation to help us solve.

Given:

120 *
`(x)/(100)` = 75

Divide both sides of the equation by 120:

`(x)/(100)` =
`0.625`

Multiply both sides of the equation by 100 (resulting in a percentage):

x = 62.5%
