You have to translate this into math terms. "Is" is the same thing as = and "of" is the same thing as a multiplication symbol. You also have to remember that 98%=.98. You should then have 6=.98x and when you divide each side by .98 your answer should be about 6.122
Yes so should the final answer be 6 or?
No, the directions said to round to the nearest tenth. 6.122 rounded to the nearest tenth is 6.1.
