Answer to Problem 46HP

The correct is 56% .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

It is given in the question that Bethany is finding what percent of 32 is 18 .

Concept Used:

In this, use the concept of percent proportion such that the ratio of given two number will equal to the ratio of p/100 .

Calculation:

Here,

Bethany found the correct value for x . Here mistake was in interpreting the percentage proportion.

  1832=p100p⋅32=18⋅100p=18×10032p=180032p≈56.25%

So it also means that 18 is to 32 as 56 is to 100 , or, in percentage terms, 18 is 56% of 32 .

Conclusion:

The correct is 56% .
