You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You have to make a proportion on this one--
\n" ); document.write( "First thing you have to do is to set the proportion up, like this:
\n" ); document.write( " x/100 = is/of
\n" ); document.write( "Doing the is over of part may seem weird but it really helps.
\n" ); document.write( "66 people of 400 people are left handed, so that means:
\n" ); document.write( " x/100 = 66/400
\n" ); document.write( "*Cross multiply and finish the proportion
\n" ); document.write( " 400x = 66(100)
\n" ); document.write( " 400x = 6600
\n" ); document.write( "*Divide each side by 400
\n" ); document.write( "*x = ?
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
