Asked by Anne

Need help with this please.

what percent of 2 2/3 is 3/4?

.75/2.6 = x/100
2.6x/2.6 = 75/2.6

answer I came to is 28.846153, is this correct. Need assistance

Answered by Ms. Sue
No. It's not right.

(2 2/3)x = 3/4

(8/3)x = 3/4

x = (3/4) / (8/3)

x = (3/4)* (3/8)

x = 9/32

Ms. Sue just so I understand should the answer be just 9/32 or 9/32%. thanks for your help.
Answered by Ms. Sue
Oh, I'm sorry, but I forgot to put it into a percent.

Divide.

9/32 = 0.281 = 28%
