65 is what percent of 278?

The correct answer is:  " 83 % " ;  or, write as:  " 83.333 % " .

Step-by-step explanation:

65 = n/100  * 278 ? ;  Solve for "n" ;

↔  n/100 * 278 = 65 ?

 n/100 = 65/278 ;

↔ ;

Cross-factor multiply:

→ 278 n  = 65 * 100;

→ 278 n  = 6500 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "278" ;

 to isolate "n" on one side of the equation;

  & to solve for "n" :

_______

→  278 n / 278  = 6500 / 278 ;

to get:

 →  " n = = (250 ÷ 3) = 83.333333333333...

                                                  =  83  ,

_______

The answer is:  " 83 % " ;  or, write as:  " 83.333 % " .

step-by-step explanation:

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.
