The first thing to do is change 58% to a decimal.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, 58% = 0.58\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The equation now looks like this:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(16/x) = 58\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To remove the fraction, multiply both sides of the equation by x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This will produce 16 = 0.58x as you know.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We now divide 16 by 0.58 to find x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "16/0.58 = x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "27.5862069 = x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We can round off 27.5862069 to the nearest tenths to get 27.6 = x.\r
