Question

The number 321.8 is 34% of x. What is the value of x rounded to the nearest whole number?

Answer 1

946

Explanation:

Let's make an equation :

34% of x = 321.8

Covert 34% into decimal by dividing by 100 :

34 ÷ 100 = 0.34

Rewrite equation with decimal form :

0.34x = 321.8

Divide both sides by x to make x the subject :

x = 321.8 ÷0.34

x = 946.470588235

To the nearest whole number will be 946 as 4 rounds it down

So our final answer will be 946

Hope this helped and have a good day

Answer 2

`{\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}}`

Here we go ~

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: (34)/(100) \sdot x = 321.8`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = \cfrac{(321.8) \sdot(100)}{34}`

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = 946.47`

Round off to nearest whole number :

`\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = 946`
