Question 472684
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}
