What percent of 28 is 56?

Answer 1

200%

Explanation:

56/28 is 2 because 28 goes into 56 two times. 28/28 is 100%, so double that and your answer is 200%

Answer 2

56 is 200% of 28.

Solution:

We need to evaluate what percent of 28 is 56

100% of 28 = 28

We have to find 1% of 28. So divide above equation by “100’ on both sides.

`(100 \%)/(100) * 28=(28)/(100)`

So 1% of 28 can be written as,

`1 \% \text { of } 28=(28)/(100)`

So 56 will be
`(56)/(28 / 100) \% of 28`

So 56 will be
`(56 * 100)/(28)` % of 28

On simplifying the above expression that is
`(56 * 100)/(28)`

`(56 * 100)/(28)=2 * 100=200`

Hence 56 is 200% of 28.
