Question

can someone explain to me how to do solving percent problems? i do not get it not one bit at all , example: 18 is 54% of what number

Answer 1

Answer:

33 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Set it up as fractions:

1. 18 / x = 54% or 18 / x = 54/100
2. 18 = 54/100 * x
3. 18 / (54 / 100) = x
4. (18 * 100) / 54 = x
5. 1,800 / 54 = x
6. 33 1/3 = x
