Evaluate the following
45 percent (%) of 10 is what number?
Let's call our missing number x.
Expressing this in terms of an equation:
we get: 45% * 10 = x
x = | 45 * 10 |
100 |
x = | 450 |
100 |
Since our fraction is not reduced, we need to calculate a greatest common factor
From that lesson, we have a GCF of 50
Dividing numerator and denominator by our 50, we get 9/2
