What percent of 185 is 70?
(please show work)

37.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 185 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with x.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100%=185.

Step 4: In the same vein, x%=70.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

100%=185(1).

x%=70(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left-hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

100% / x% = 185 / 70

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

x% / 100% = 70/185

---> = 37.84%

Therefore, 70 is 37.84% of 185.

it is b)

hope this : )
