120% of x is 96. What is x?

Step-by-step explanation:

You can do this using a small equation.

120% x = 96                    Change 120% to a decimal

120/100 * x = 96             Multiply by 100

120x = 96 * 100

120x = 9600                   Divide by 120

x = 9600/120

x =  80

Look what you got. 20% more than 80 is 96. x is smaller than 96.

If you take 20/100 * 80 = 16

if you add 16 to 80, you  get 96

x = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

120 % of x = 96

or, 120/ 100 × x = 96 change percentage to 100 and devide

or, 6 / 5 × x = 96

or, 6x / 5 =96. multiply 6 and x

or, 6x = 96 × 5. change devide sign to multiply

or, 6x = 480. multiply

or, x = 480 / 6. change multiply sign to devide

therefore, x = 80

hope this answer will help you.

have a great time

-7

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 18x + 74 = (x + 9)^2 - 81 + 74

= (x + 9)^2 - 7.

so q = -7.
