Question

19 is 47.5% of what number?

Answer 1

19 is 47.5% of 40.

Explanation:

First, you have to use the formula is/of=%/100, so since 19 is closest to the word is, 19 will go on the top left, since 47.5% is a percentage it will go on top of 100, finally, 100 always goes on the bottom and x will be the of, since there is no given number for it (19/x=47.5/100). You cross multiply (19x100) then divide it by the remaining number (47.5) then you get your answer of 40.

Answer 2

The answer is 40. I hope that helps :)
