Complete each blank to find an expression that is equal to 16%.
a. __ for every 100,
b. __for every 50,
c. 1 for every
d. 0.5 for every

A) 16 per cent is 16 per hundred, so here the answer is 16!

b) 50 is half of a hundret: so it will be half of 16; 8 is the answer

c)

here i will write an equation:



we multiply both sides by x



and multiply by 100



and divide by 16



so

is the answer (this is 6.25)

d) we can use the half of c) like we did in b using half of a:

the answer is 6.25=3.125
\frac{16x}{100}
