1 Answer

Mar 7, 2016

$3.5$ $3.5$ or $\frac{7}{2}$ $7/2$

Explanation:

$x %$ $x%$ means $\frac{x}{100}$ $x/100$ .

$35 %$ $35%$ means $\frac{35}{100} = \frac{7}{20}$ $35/100 = 7/20$ .

$35 %$ $35%$ of 10 means

$35 % \times 10 = \frac{7}{20} \times 10$ $35% xx 10 = 7/20 xx 10$

$= 7/{2cancel(0)} xx 1cancel{0}$

$= 7/2 xx 1$

$= 7/2 = 3.5$
