Question

how do you do 72% of waht weight is 50 oz?

Answer 1

Remember in math that the word "of" means multiply!!



So you have,

72% of ? = 50

0.72 X ? = 50

0.72 / 0.72 X ? = 50 / 0.72

? = 50 / 0.72

? = 69.4444444444



Checking:

72% of 69.444444444

= 0.72 X 69.444444444

= 49.999999999999

Answer 2

5o oz / .72= 69.4



and if you want to check that multpily the weight with the percent and you will get 50

Answer 3

x * .72 = 50oz



to get x divide both sides by .72



x = 69.44444oz
