Question

1. If 170% of a number is 680, what is 50% of the number?*
O A. 180
B. 200
O C.315
O D. 340
O E. 400

Answer 1

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the number is x. Then 170% of the number is just 1.7x, so 680 = 1.7x. Therefore, x = 400.

Now we have to find 50% of the number, which is just half, so it's 200.
