Answer 2

To find : what percentage of 85 kg will be 85 grams​ .

Solution :

• A percentage is a fraction of an amount expressed as a particular number of hundredths of that amount.
• It is denoted by means % .
• Fractions can be converted into percentages and vice-versa.
• Percentages are reversible. For example, $30 \% \ of \ 40$ is the same as $\ 40 \%\ of \ 30$
• We know that $1$ kg = $1000$ g
• Therefore , $85$ kg = $85000$ g  
• $x\ \%\ of\ 85000 = 85$

        $\frac{x}{100} \times 85000 = 85 \\x = \frac{8500}{85000} \\x = \frac{1 }{10 } \\x = 0.1$

Hence, $0.1$ % of 85 kg is 85 grams​ .
