4. convert 9/16 to percent
__________________________________________________________________________
1) .12x=72
.12x/.12 = 72/.12
x= 600
His paycheck is $600.
2)(28/32)* 100 =x
.875 *100 =x
87.5=x
87.5% of the students passed.
3)
8200 * .15 = 1230
The amount of interest you will pay is $1230.
4)9/16=x/100
Cross multiply.
9(100)=16x
900=16x
900/16=x
56.25=x
56.25% is the answer.
Hope this helps.
