Hi!

75 as a percent is 0.75

First, we need to figure out was 75% of 60 is. We do:

[tex].75*60[/tex]

[tex]45[/tex]

Therefore, the table is 45 inches longer than the the desk. However, notice the question asks how long the table is. We need to add the length of the desk to 45.

[tex]60 + 45\\[/tex]

[tex]105[/tex]

Therefore, the table is 105 inches long.
