Question 93543
                23,000=2845x/(100-x)

(100-x)23,000 2845x/(100-x) (100-x) multiply 100-x from both sides of equation

23,000(100-x)=2845x notice it cancels out on the right side of the equation

2,300,000-23,000x=2845x combine like terms by adding 23,000x from both sides.

2,300,000-23,000x    =2845x
When you add a +23,000 a -23,000 you get 0. when you add a +23,000 to 2845  you get the  following.                                                                                                                                                           2,300,000         =  25,845x

2,300,000/25,845x=25,845x/25,845x divide 25,845 from both sides to get "x"
x=88.99% or 89%
