Question #8fe29

Answer 1

1462

Explanation:

We can simply rewrite 43% as 0.43 (percents are out of 100, so we can do 43/100 to get 0.43).

Next, we can multiply this by 3400 to get our answer:

`0.43*3400=1462`

To check our answer, we can divide 1462 by 3400, and if we get 0.43, we're correct!:

`1462/3400= 0.43`

Answer 2

`43%` of `3400` is `1462`

Explanation:

One way to solve this is to use the formula:

`P%*x=Y`, where

• `P` is the percent

• `x` is the value given

• `Y` is the value of the percent of a number

In this case, `P=43%` and `x=3400`

So our formula will look like this:

`43%*3400=Y`

We are going to convert `43%` to a decimal by removing the `%` sign and dividing it by `100`

So, `43/100=0.43`

Therefore, our equation is now

`0.43*3400=Y`

Compute and you'll get...

`1462=Y`

Thus, we can conclude that `43%` of `3400` is `1462`
