Answer by rapaljer(4671)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let n = the unknown ("What percent" means n!)
"of" usually means "times"
"is" means "="

What percent of 175 is 35


This looks like the multiple choice b. 175n = 35

To eliminate the d. answer, you can divide both sides by 175, which gives you
, which is NOT d!

Final answer = b. 175n = 35
