Question

HINT: The number 80 is the whole.

? = 228.57%

? = 35%

? = 2.29%

? = 43.75%

Answer 1

To find out what percentage 35 is of 80, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}} \right) \times 100 \]

In this case, the "Part" is 35, and the "Whole" is 80. Plugging in the numbers:

\[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{35}{80} \right) \times 100 \]

Now, calculate \( \frac{35}{80} \):

\[ \frac{35}{80} = 0.4375 \]

Now, multiply by 100 to convert to percentage:

\[ 0.4375 \times 100 = 43.75 \]

Thus, 35 is 43.75% of 80. Rounding to the nearest hundredth gives 43.75%.

The answer is:

\(\text{43.75%}\)
