55% of what number is 1100? which of the following proportions could be used to solve this problem? a: 55100=x110055100=x1100 b: 55100=1100x55100=1100x c: 551100=100x551100=100x d: 55x=110010055x=1100100

Wouldn't the answer be B? 

The answer is 270 cars.you can do this by making a proportional relationship. for instance, 200 is the whole we are using, so on a “number line” 200 would be over 100%. now, since he sells 35% more, add 35% to 100% to get 135% on the other side of the “number line” on the bottom half, leaving the top half empty.cross multiply 200 by 135 then divide by 100 to get your answer. i hope this , if it did, , if you don’t mind, giving me brainiest! 200/100% } 200 • 135 /100 ? /135%
