Answer: 70.909090909091%
Step-by-step explanation: Reading through the problem we have 78 is, that's 78 equals, what percent, x/100, of 110, times 110.
It's important to understand that percent means over 100 so what percent would simply mean x/100 or any variable but I will be using x.
So we have the equation [tex]78 = \frac{x}{100} *110[/tex]
So cross canceling the 110 and 100 to 11 and 10, we have [tex]78 = \frac{11x}{10}[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 10 to get rid
of the fraction and we have 780 = 11x.
Now divide both sides by 11 and 70.909090909091 = x.
So, 78 is 70.909090909091% of 110.
