Larson · Answer 1

Of usually means multiply. change the 75% to a decimal by divide by 100 to get. 75.

.75 * x = 150, now divide both sides by. 75

x = 150/.75

x = 200

now check it ...75 * 200 = 150

I'm not sure if this is correct but you would put it into an equation while you solve for X. so 0.75x=150 or equivalently would be like (3/4) x=150 Then after that you would divide both sides by 0.75 or 3/4
