Hey there!
45% * 72
= 45/100 * 72
= 45/100 * 72/1
= 45 ÷ 5/100 ÷ 5 * 72/1
= 9/20 * 72/1
= 9(72) / 20/1
= 648 / 20
= 648 ÷ 2 / 20 ÷ 2
= 324 / 10
= 324 ÷ 2 / 10 ÷ 2
= 162 / 5
≈ 32 2/5
Therefore, your answer is:
[32 2/5] or [162/5] either should work because they are both equivalent to each other!
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
