Question

6.50 is 25% of what number?

Answer 1

26

Explanation:

25% is 1/4 so 6.50+6.5+6.50+6.50= 26

Answer 2

Answer: 26

Step-by-step explanation: Reading through the problem we have "6.50 is" that's 6.50 =, "25%" 25/100, "of" times, "what number" x.

I changed 25% to 25/100 because "percent" means over 100.

Reducing the 25/100 to 1/4, we have 6.50 =
`(1x)/(4)`.

Multiplying both sides by 4 to get rid of the fraction, we have 26 = x.

So 6.50 is 25% of 26.
