If a work group consistently achieves 80 % of its quarterly goals and the work group generally has 25 objectives per quarter how many objectives can the work group be expected to achieve in any given quarter

You can solve this by using is over of equals percent over 100. rewrite the sentence like this: what is 80 percent of 25? what is (is) (is is now x, this is what you're solving for) 80 percent (80 is your percentage) of 25 (25 is your of). then just plug the numbers in. so it would be x over 25 equals 80 over 100. Then solve for x. Do this by multiplying x and 100 (100x) and then multiplying 25 and 80 (2,000) so your equation would be 100x=2,000 Now divide both sides by 100 to get your x. In this case, it would be 100x/100=x, and 2,000/100=20, so 20 is your answer. the group gets 20 of thier objectives done.  :)

Iagree that is the answer to the question
