Question

Which equation can be used to solve the problem? 75 percent of what number is 150? asap

Answer 1

200

Explanation:

75/100 of what = 150, so what = 150*100/75 = 200

0.75 x=150

Equivalently

(3/4) x=150

Then after that you would divide both sides by 0.75 or 3/4

150/0.75 or 3.4 = 200

Answer 2

200

Explanation:

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 75,we have x = 150 ×

100/75

x = 200
