Question

To solve the problem "56 is what percent of 70?", Noah uses the double number line below. On the double number line, write the correct numbers at each unlabeled tick mark. Then solve the problem. Explain your answer

Answer 1

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

I have filled out and attached the double number line below. From the picture, we can see that the number 56 is 80% of 70. In the image, this is represented by the second number line where 80% is on the same tick as 56 is on the first number line. Mathematically this can be calculated by dividing 56 by 70 and then multiplying that decimal value by 100 to get the percentage like so...

56 / 70 = 0.8

0.8 * 100 = 80%
