Question

1000% of 880 is the same as 60% of what number?

Answer 1

Answer: 1,466
`(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

First, we will find what 1,000% of 880 is. In mathematics, "of" means multiplication. We also know that a percent divided by 100 is equal to that decimal.

100 * 880 = 8,800

Next, we will create an equation to find the number we're solving for since "is" in mathematics means equals. Let this number be equal to x. We will solve the equation for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 6.

8,800 = 6x

1,466
`(2)/(3)` = x
