Question 472684: what percent of 320 is 180
Answer by algebrahouse.com(1659)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! a = pb is a formula that works for all percent problems
a is the part, p is the percent (as a decimal), and b is the whole
Use common sense to decide where the numbers go:
a = pb
180 = p(320) {substituted in}
p = .5625 {divided both sides by 320}
p = 56.25% {changed decimal to percent by moving decimal point right two places}
