Answer:
13.33% ≅ 13%
750%
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine how many percent a certain number makes of another number, all you need to remember is percent means part of the whole and then you multiply it by 100%.
So it turns out like this:
[tex]\dfrac{part}{whole}\times 100\%[/tex]
In the first case, 5 percent is the part and 37 1/2 is the whole. The second case, the opposite is given.
Let's do the first one:
[tex]\dfrac{part}{whole}\times 100\%[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{5ft}{37.5ft}\times 100\%[/tex]
[tex]13.33\%[/tex]
Now let's try the next one:
[tex]\dfrac{37.5ft}{5ft}\times 100\%[/tex]
[tex]750\%[/tex]
