Answer:

99 is 36% of 275.

Explanation:

To find this, we need to set up our equation. We will have 99 be 36% of the number we are trying to find, while we are going to have x equal the number we are looking for. Then, on the right side of the equation we are making, we will have the percent.

99/x=36/100

Next, we cross multiply.

36x=9900

Now, divide both sides by 36 to get x by itself.

x=275

So 99 is 36% of 275.
