Answer:

450

Explanation:

Step 1: Convert 75% to fraction


(75)/(100) = (3)/(4)


=(3)/(4)* \:600

Step 2: Convert 600 to a fraction


600=(600)/(1)

Step 3: Set it up


=(3)/(4)* (600)/(1)

Step 4: Cross Divide


600 / 4 = 150\\3 / 1 = 3

Step 5: Multiply the results


150 * 3 = 450

Therefore, the machine produced 450 parts yesterday
