Answer:
a.p/100
b.56
Step-by-step explanation:
2% of p=k
2/100 ×p=k
2p/100=k
Cross multiply 2p=100k
P=100k/2
p=50k
Let's make k the subject of formula
k=p/50
So 50% of k in terms of p
50/100×k
And k=p/50
So let's substitute
50/100×p/50
P/100
Therefore 50%of k=p/100
Let the unknown number be x
10% of x is 7
10/100×x=7
10x/100=7
Cross multiply
10x=(100)(7)
10x=700
Divide both sides by 10
X=70
So 80% of 70
80/100×70
5600/100
=56
Therefore 80% of 70=56
