Answer this question…What is 75 of 125 as a percent?
Let the length be 5x and the width be 3x:- 2(5x +3x) = 400 10x +6x = 400 16x = 400 x = 25 Therefore: length = 125 units and width = 75 units Check: 125 +125 +75 +75 = 400 units of measurement
75/125 = 3/5
1/6Why?.125 times 2 is 25, 25 times 3 is 75, so 3 X 2 = 6===================================Really, to answer the question we must formulate an equation,what percent of .75 IS .125 can be expressed:.125 = .75 * P (Where P represents the percent)So a simple re-arrangement and we get:P = .125/.75 = .166666666666 or rounded to 16.67%which is what the question was really askingCould also have gone 1/8 divided by 3/4 = 1/6 = .1666666666=>
