49 is 72 and is the closest square number to 50.
7 (x+1)/72 = (x-1)/54 x+1 = (72x-72)54 54x+54 = 72x-72 54x-72x = -72-54 -18x = -126 x = 7
72-20 = 52
3/8 = 3 divided by 8. That equals 0.375. Times this number (0.375) X 72 will equal 27. If you look at 3/8, this is less than 4/8 (or 1/2). So you can estimate that the number will be less than 1/2 of 72 which is 36.

The Answer is 2520 No it is not--- to find the answer first convert the % to a decimal so 36% would look like 36. and THEN move the decimal over 2 spaces to the left (this is just a rule to remember) 36% is the same as .36 Then simply multiply by the number given so 36% of 72 would look like .36 * 72 and the answer is 25.92 A tip to remember is that 100% of a number is THE SAME NUMBER so 100% of 72 is 72 So if you are looking for 36% (which is less than 100%) your answer will obviously be less than the original number (in this case less than 72)--so obviously the poster who says the answer is 2520 is incorrect same for the opposite direction--if you are looking for 200% (greater than 100%) of a number your answer will be GREATER than the original number--so usually on multiple choice math tests you can eliminate 2 of the options right off the bat by simply applying that tip to them.
