Answer 1

Answer:

Solution for 1280 is what percent of 2100:

1280:2100*100 =

(1280*100):2100 =

128000:2100 = 60.95

Now we have: 1280 is what percent of 2100 = 60.95

Question: 1280 is what percent of 2100?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 2100 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=2100$.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=1280$.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=2100(1)$.

$x\%=1280(2)$.

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{2100}{1280}$

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{1280}{2100}$

$\Rightarrow x=60.95\%$

Therefore, $1280$ is $60.95\%$ of $2100$.
