Answer:
new answer with estimate= 10 old answer= [tex]9.24[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Use this method percent proportion
[tex]\frac{Percent}{100} = \frac{Part}{Whole}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{Percent}{100} = \frac{is}{of}[/tex]
Answer:
12% of 77
[tex]\frac{12}{100} = \frac{x}{77} = \frac{100x}{100} = \frac{924}{100} x = 9.24[/tex]
Steps:
1. Make a proportion with the method percent proportion.
2. After setting up numbers in proportion cross-multiply.
3. Make 100x because we don't know the value of x.
4. After multiplying 12 x 77 you should've gotten 924.
5. After cross-multiplying divide your new proportion.
6. [tex]x= 9.24[/tex] estimate = 10
now I'm not sure if those number in your question is your new estimate answer but since 9.24 is close to 10 your answer will be 10
Have a great day hoped it helped :)
