Answer:

The answer is:

5 ft is 13.33% of 37 1/2 ft; 37 1/2 ft is 750% of 5 ft.

Explanation:

Given:

5 ft is ____ % of 37 1 2 ft.

Now, to find the __ :

Let __ be
x.

So, 5 ft is
x\% of 37 1/2


5=x\% of 37(1)/(2)


5=(x)/(100) * (75)/(2)


5=(75x)/(200)

Multiplying both sides by 200 we get:


1000=75x

Dividing both sides by 75 we get:


13.33=x


x=13.33\%.

Now, 37 1/2 ft is
x% of 5 ft.


(75)/(2) =x\%\ of\ 5


(75)/(2)=(x)/(100)* 5


(75)/(2) =(5x)/(100)

Multiplying both sides by 100 we get:


(7500)/(2) =5x

Dividing both sides by 5 we get:


750=x


x=750\%

Therefore, the answer is 5 ft is 13.33% of 37 1/2 ft; 37 1/2 ft is 750% of 5 ft.
