What is 65 percent of 182?

Answer 1

When you're working with problems like this it's helpful to associate words with operations.

x=65%*182

(All I did here was add a variable for "what", and equals sign for "is", and a multiplication symbol for "of")

Remember too that 65% can also be written as .65 (or 65 over 100 if you prefer)

x= .65*182

x= 118.3

or, if you cannot use a calculator or want to solve by fractions

65/100 * 182/1

11830/100

118 and 3/10, or 118.3.
