Answer by elima(1433) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Rewrite the prob;em in an algebra equation;
In word problems;
"is" always means =
"of" always means multiply
And lets make "what %" WP
So we rewrite the problem using these terms;
7=WP*28
Divide each side by 28;
=
25%=WP
So 7 is 25% of 28
=)
We are not laughing! I understand completely if you have been out of algebra for a while it takes time to refreash your memory. It happens to everyone, it happens to me. Even still I will come across a problem I have not done for a while and I will have to go back and look it up.
So anyway don't think we laugh, I think it's great that you asked!
