Answer 1

Answer:

You could answer this two ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1: Set up proportion

x/40=55/100

Cross-multiply and you will get..

2200=100x

x=22

Method 2: Use decimals

As we saw in the first method, 55 percent is equal to 55/100. 55/100 is equal to 0.55.

You can multiply 0.55 and 40 to get the answer as well.

0.55 times 40 is 22.

Hope this explanation helped! ☺️
