Write an equation and solve. Round to the nearest hundredth where necessary. 19 is what percent of 40?
You first divide 40 by 19:
19/40=?
Then you convert that to percentage by dropping the decimal point and attaching a %
(hint: you should get 48% about :)
Answer:
47.5% is 19 of the 40 .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
19 is a part value of 40.
Let us assume that the x % is 19 of the number 40.
Now written x % in the decimal form.
\(= \frac{x}{100}\)
Than the equation becomes
\(\frac{x\times 40}{100} = 19\)
Solving the above
\(\frac{19\times 100}{40} = x\)
\(\frac{1900}{40} = x\)
x = 47.5%
Therefore 47.5% is 19 of the 40 .
