Question

Find the whole using the percent equation.
40​% of what number of salads is 110 ​salads?

Answer 1

Answer:275

Explanation:

Unknown number is a

40% of a=110

40/100 x a=110

40a/100=110

Cross multiplying we get

40a=100 x 110

40a=11000

Divide both sides by 40

40a/40=11000/40

a=275
