The answer depends on whether the "then 35 percent" applies to 35 percent of what was left or of the original sum.
0.07 x 500 = 35
35% of 500 pounds= 35% * 500= 0.35 * 500= 175 pounds
To calculate 35 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.35. For example, 35 percent of 500 is equal to 500 x 0.35 = 175.
35% of 20 = 35% * 20 = 0.35 * 20 = 7
To find 35 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.35. In this instance, 0.35 x 500 = 175. Therefore, 35 percent of 500 is equal to 175.
7% of 500 is 35, so deduct 35. Therefore 500 minus 35 (7%) is 465.
Well, 20 percent of 35 is 7. I hope that's what you were asking.
35 is 175% of 20.
