Question

Translate to a proportion. Do not solve. What is 37% of 74? Choose the correct answer below

Answer 1

To translate the proportion we can use the rule of three:

`\begin{gathered} 74\rightarrow100 \\ x\rightarrow37 \end{gathered}`

Now we divide the number on the left by the number of the right and equate the ratios, Then:

`(x)/(37)=(74)/(100)`

Therefore the answer is A.
