1. Problem: Solve for the missing value in each case from 10 to 24.
2. Formula: To find a percentage of a number, use the formula $$\text{Percentage value} = \frac{x}{100} \times \text{Total}$$ where $x$ is the percentage.
3. Important rules:
- To find $x$% of a number, multiply the number by $\frac{x}{100}$.
- To find what percentage $x$ is of a number, use $x = \frac{\text{part}}{\text{whole}} \times 100$.
- To find the whole when given a part and percentage, use $\text{whole} = \frac{\text{part} \times 100}{x}$.
4. Solve each:
10. $x\%$ of 64 is 10
$$\frac{x}{100} \times 64 = 10$$
$$64 \times \frac{x}{100} = 10$$
$$\cancel{64} \times \frac{x}{100} = 10$$
$$x = \frac{10 \times 100}{64} = \frac{1000}{64} = 15.625$$
11. $x$ is 45% of 96
$$x = \frac{45}{100} \times 96 = 0.45 \times 96 = 43.2$$
12. 33% of 80 is $x$
$$x = \frac{33}{100} \times 80 = 0.33 \times 80 = 26.4$$
13. 16 is $x$% of 104
$$\frac{x}{100} \times 104 = 16$$
$$104 \times \frac{x}{100} = 16$$
$$\cancel{104} \times \frac{x}{100} = 16$$
$$x = \frac{16 \times 100}{104} = \frac{1600}{104} \approx 15.38$$
14. $x$% of 46 is 276
$$\frac{x}{100} \times 46 = 276$$
$$46 \times \frac{x}{100} = 276$$
$$\cancel{46} \times \frac{x}{100} = 276$$
$$x = \frac{276 \times 100}{46} = \frac{27600}{46} = 600$$
15. $x$% of 30 is 20
$$\frac{x}{100} \times 30 = 20$$
$$30 \times \frac{x}{100} = 20$$
$$\cancel{30} \times \frac{x}{100} = 20$$
$$x = \frac{20 \times 100}{30} = \frac{2000}{30} \approx 66.67$$
16. 9 is 30% of what?
$$9 = \frac{30}{100} \times \text{whole}$$
$$9 = 0.3 \times \text{whole}$$
$$\text{whole} = \frac{9}{0.3} = 30$$
17. 210% of $y$ is 3150
$$\frac{210}{100} \times y = 3150$$
$$2.1y = 3150$$
$$y = \frac{3150}{2.1} = 1500$$
18. 50.5% of 80 is $c$
$$c = \frac{50.5}{100} \times 80 = 0.505 \times 80 = 40.4$$
19. $m$ is 7.5% of 64
$$m = \frac{7.5}{100} \times 64 = 0.075 \times 64 = 4.8$$
20. 80 is 60% of $k$
$$80 = \frac{60}{100} \times k$$
$$80 = 0.6k$$
$$k = \frac{80}{0.6} = 133.33$$
21. $z$ is 8% of 64
$$z = \frac{8}{100} \times 64 = 0.08 \times 64 = 5.12$$
22. $s$ is 112% of 150
$$s = \frac{112}{100} \times 150 = 1.12 \times 150 = 168$$
23. $r$% of 12.8 is 11.2
$$\frac{r}{100} \times 12.8 = 11.2$$
$$12.8 \times \frac{r}{100} = 11.2$$
$$\cancel{12.8} \times \frac{r}{100} = 11.2$$
$$r = \frac{11.2 \times 100}{12.8} = \frac{1120}{12.8} = 87.5$$
24. 180% of 125 is $y$
$$y = \frac{180}{100} \times 125 = 1.8 \times 125 = 225$$
