Answer:
94.248 is 30.6% of 308.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given problem asks us to find the number that represents the "whole" for which 94.248 is the 30.6% of its portion or "part."
In order to find that number, we must first transform 30.6% into its decimal form by moving the decimal point two places to the left:
30.6% ⇒ 0.306
Next, we must divide 94.248 by 0.306 to find the unknown number (because the opposite mathematical operation of multiplication is division):
[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{94.248}{0.306}\:=\:308}[/tex]
In order to verify whether 308 is the correct value of the unknown number that represents the "whole," simply multiply 94.248 by 0.306:
94.248 × 0.306 = 308
Therefore, 94.248 is 30.6% of 308.
