Question

9.5 percent of X is equal to 3500 find the value of X

Answer 1

Answer:

332.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Introduction:

'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

9.5% = 9.5 'out of one hundred',

p% is read p 'percent',

9.5% = 9.5/100 = 9.5 ÷ 100

Calculate percentage:

'Percentage' is obtained by multiplying 3,500 by 9.5%.

9.5% × 3,500 =

(9.5 ÷ 100) × 3,500 =

(9.5 × 3,500) ÷ 100 =

33,250 ÷ 100 =

332.5;

How do we check the result?

If 9.5% × 3,500 = 332.5 =>

Divide 332.5 by 3,500...

... And see if we get as a result: 9.5%.

Note:

100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 100% = 1

Multiply a number by the fraction 100/100,

... and its value doesn't change.

n/100 = n%, any number.

Calculate the percent value:

332.5 ÷ 3,500 =

0.095 =

0.095 × 100/100 =

(0.095 × 100)/100 =

9.5/100 =

9.5%

Answer 2

Answer:

9.5 /100 *x = 3500

x= 3500 /9.5/100 = 3.68 .......
