Respuesta :

set up a ratio
56.25/100 = 168.75/x
cross multiply and get that x = 300

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

The information we have is:

Number        percentage

 168.75     →    56.25%

and we want to know what number will be the 100%, in such a way that the 56.25% is 168.75, so we update the last table:

Number        percentage

 168.75     →    56.25%

     x          →    100%

Using the information we have, to find x we must multiply 168.25 by 100% and then divide by 56.25%:

[tex]x=\frac{168.75*100}{56.25}=\frac{16875}{56.25} =300[/tex]

thus, 168.75 is 56.25% of 300.
