(C) 65/20 * 100
(D) 65 * 20
Answer:
Option A has the same value as 65% of 20
Explanation:
Let x be the value of 65% of 20
![x = 65\% of 20](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/zkh9pu5ht5k4r7vmg82w3gfvbdfypcij5e.png)
![x = (65)/(100) * 20](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/kwqd9wzxkngya1i1lc7qxbmti98emh80av.png)
![x =0.65 * 20](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/2cq7g2747pv4g7sdszzqu7ww80jo4w74aw.png)
![x =13](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/7fvpmpf1irycuim8bs5g8n243cqfn0rbvc.png)
Thus 65% of 20 is 13
Now ,
Solving Option A
=>
![(0.65) \cdot (20)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/c3i3y5b1pm148g9l5hlefq7q8c6up1q2m8.png)
=> 13
Solving Option B
=> 65/100 divided by 20
=>
![((65)/(100))/(20)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/x2uynujgd0x1tw6zmecm13kk336ke911gq.png)
=>
![(0.65)/(20)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/jz10dn2uy9uu2lb67wzl1doxyma6ec4itf.png)
=>0.0325
Solving Option C
=>65/20 * 100
=>
![(65)/(20) * 100](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/406i4hcnr68u5ek0nmsfb8t2fg9w01r4xw.png)
=>
![3.25 * 100](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/xlikyvq3n617k4sf0u7f9umfmbv7rek9ux.png)
=>325
Solving Option D
=> 65 * 20
=>
![65 * 20](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/90hrob1sdrfgebu2gwm4bt52b6lhdb5z0i.png)
=> 1300
