Chapter 7.2, Problem 64S

To determine

Calculate following proportion

  $\frac{65}{8}=\frac{n}{100}$

Answer to Problem 64S

For $\frac{65}{8}=\frac{n}{100}$ ,

Value of $n=812.5$

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  $\frac{65}{8}=\frac{n}{100}$

Calculations:

Here we have to calculate value of h,

  $\begin{array}{l}\frac{65}{8}=\frac{n}{100}\\ 100\times 65=8\times n\\ n=\frac{65\times 100}{8}\\ n=812.5\end{array}$

Conclusion:

Therefore, we are able to calculate value of n using simple percent proportion.
