Question

172% of 50 is what number?

Answer 1

86

Explanation:

172% of 50

First, find 1% of 50 (in other words, 1/100 x 50) = 0.5

then, multiply 0.5 by 172 = 86

So, 172% of 50 = 86

This makes sense, because 100% of 50 = 50. So, 172% of 50 is going to be more than 50, but less than 100 (200%).

Hope this helps!
