Hello!
The Correct Answer to this is that
7 divided by 20 or 7/20 equals:
"7/20 = 0.35"
Explanation:
Since you are trying to find equivalent values for 7/20, you can make two proportions and set them equal to each other. The following states that "7 out of 20 is equal to some amount out of 100."
7/20=x/100
Solve by cross multiplying:
20x=700
Divide both sides by 20 to isolate x:
x=35 Therefore, 7/20=35/100. This is the same as saying 35%, since by definition "per" means out of, and "cent" means hundred. To make it into a decimal just move the decimal place two digits to the left, such that 35.00 becomes 0.35, and 100.00 becomes 1. Then it is simply 0.35/1, or 0.35
Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)
