Question

what percent of 24 is 16?​

Answer 1

the answer is 66 2/3

working :
let the unknown percentage be y
24 x y/100 = 16
y/100 = 16/24
y = 16/24 x 100
y = 66 2/3

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 66.7

Step-by-step explanation:

(x/100) × 24 = 16

multiply the numerators

24x / 100 = 16

cross multiply

24x = 16 × 100

24x = 1600

divide both sides by 24

(24x / 24) = ( 1600 / 24)

x  = 66.667

x ≈ 66.7
