Answer: 200

Explanation:

first, you set up your proportion. (23% at the top right, 100 at the bottom right, 46 at the top left, and x and the bottom left.) next, you multiply x * 23% = 23x then 46*100 = 4600. 4600 divided by 23 = 200. therefore, x = 200. please let me know if you have further questions!

Good luck !
