7 critics liked the sequel to My Giant. This represents 10% of all critics. How many critics reviewed it in all?

Question

A
100

B
700

C
14

D
70

Answer 1

To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion:

7 critics / x total critics = 10% / 100%

Cross multiplying, we get:

7 * 100% = 10% * x

700% = 10% * x

Dividing both sides by 10%, we get:

70 = x

So, there were 70 critics who reviewed the sequel to My Giant.

The answer is D) 70.
