Answer:
190 percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A rocking horse has a weight limit of 60 pounds.
We have to find what percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.
x percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.
⇒ x% of 60 = 114
[tex]\frac{x}{100} \times 60 = 114[/tex]
Solve for x;
[tex]\frac{6x}{10} = 114[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 10 we get;
[tex]\frac{6x}{10} \times 10 = 114 \times 10[/tex]
[tex]6x = 1140[/tex]
Divide both sides by 6 we get;
[tex]x = \frac{1140}{6}[/tex]
Simplify:
x = 190%
Therefore, 190 percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.
