85/100, or in lower terms, 17/20.
136 - 136x = 85 136-85 = 136x 51/136 = x = 0.375 multiply x by 100 to get percent change = 37.5%
There can be no answer.4 students out of 17 is 24% and 5 students out of 17 is 29%. So 26% represents a number of students between 4 and 5. But you cannot have fractional students. Furthermore, whether it is 4 or 5, 85% is again a fractional number. Clearly, the numbers in the question are seriously flawed.
To find 85 percent of 90, you first convert 85 percent to a decimal by dividing by 100, which gives you 0.85. Then, you multiply 0.85 by 90 to get the answer. Therefore, 85 percent of 90 is 76.5.
To find 85 percent of a number, you can multiply the number by 0.85 (which is the decimal equivalent of 85 percent). For example, to find 85 percent of 100, you would calculate 100 x 0.85 = 85. Another way to find 85 percent of a number is to divide the number by 100 and then multiply the result by 85.
85/100, or in lower terms, 17/20.
42.5 = 85/2
70%
0.85
136 - 136x = 85 136-85 = 136x 51/136 = x = 0.375 multiply x by 100 to get percent change = 37.5%
37.5% decrease.
85% decrease.
when does this go in effect
17/20 to a decimal and a percent = 0.85; 85%
42.5 = 85/2
85 percent = 0.85
85 percent of 75 is 63.75
