Answer:

233.33

Explanation:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 150 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with x.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100%=150.

Step 4: In the same vein, x%=350.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

100%=150(1).

x%=350(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

frac{100%}{x\%}=frac{150}{350}

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

Hope this helps :D
