what percent of 24 is 72

Sagot :

72 = x% from 24

72 = [tex]\frac{x}{100}[/tex] * 24

72 = [tex]\frac{x}{25}[/tex] * 6

72 = [tex]\frac{6x}{25}[/tex]                    / * 25 (both sides)

1800 = 6x               / ÷ 6 (both sides)

x = 300

Answer: 72 is 300% of 24.

You can also do it easily in head as 72 is just as much as 3 times 24, so it has to be 300%.
72 goes into 24...3 times, so your answer would be 300%
