Question

30% of 70 is what percent of 2000?

Answer 1

Answer:

1.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 30% of 70 is $30\% \times 70 = \frac{30}{100} \times 70 = 0.3 \times 70 = 21$, so the question becomes "21 is what percent of 2000?"

To answer this, we can solve for $x$ in the equation $21 = x\% \times 2000$, which is:

$21 = x\% \times 2000\\21 = \frac{x}{100} \times 2000\\21 = 20x\\x=\frac{21}{20}=1.05$

So the answer is 1.05 percent.
