Let n = the missing number.
\n" ); document.write( "Change to 45% to its decimal equivalent. 45% = 0.45, then:
\n" ); document.write( "\"120+=+0.45n\" Divide both sides by 0.45
\n" ); document.write( "\"120%2F0.45+=+0.45n%2F0.45\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"266.67+=+n\" so...
\n" ); document.write( "120 is 45% of 266.667
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
