Answer to Problem 22CR

  275

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The percent problem “ 55 is 20% of what number?”.

Concept used:

To translate a phrase of the form “ A is B percent of what number?” to an equation. First, assume that the number is x . Then, read the statement “ A is B% of x ”. In “ B% of x ” the word “of” represents “multiplication”. So, the given statement can be translated in to an equation as follows:

  AisB%ofxA=B100·x

So, the equation becomes A=B100·x .

Calculation:

Using the concept, the given statement can be translated into an equation as

  55=20100x .

Now, solve the equation as follows:

       55=20100x55=15x555=515xMultiply both sides with 5.275=xx=275

Therefore, 55 is 20% of x=275.

Conclusion:

The solution of the percent problem is 275 .
