Question

How do you solve 3/4 % of 387?

Answer 1

To calculate the 3/4% of 387, you have to use cross multiplication:

The fraction 3/4 can be expressed as a decimal value to make the calculations easier: 3/4=0.75

100% is 387

0.75% is x

Both relations are at the same ratio, so that

`\begin{gathered} (387)/(100)=(x)/(0.75) \\ x=(387)/(100)\cdot0.75 \\ x=2.9025 \end{gathered}`

This means that the 3/4% of 387 is 2.9025
