Respuesta :
40% is the same as 40/100. 40/100 is 648.
Cross multiply
40/100 = 648/x (letting x be the capacity)
648x100 = 64800
divide by 40 = 1620
The capacity is 1620 gallons.
Cross multiply
40/100 = 648/x (letting x be the capacity)
648x100 = 64800
divide by 40 = 1620
The capacity is 1620 gallons.
The total capacity of the tank will be 1620 gallons of water.
What is the percentage?
The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.
It is given that:-
- A tank that is 40 per cent full contains 648 gallons of water
- What is the capacity of the tank?
The total capacity will be calculated as:-
40% = 648 gallons of water
(40 / 4 ) % = 648 / 4
10 % = 162
10 x 10 % = 162 x 10
100% = 1620 gallons of water.
Therefore the total capacity of the tank will be 1620 gallons of water.
