If Zoey inflated 15% of the total number of balloons inflated for the dance, how many balloons are there total? 15% 24 is 15% of what number? 15 100 = 0.15 ∙ 𝑥 15 100 24 24 inflated inflated = 𝑥 total total 24=0.15𝑥 0.15 0.15 15 𝑥 15𝑥 2400 = 100 24 15 15 160 = 𝑥 2400 15 = 480 3 𝑥 = = 160 160
Example B: Haley is making admission tickets to the middle school dance. So far she has made 112 tickets, and her plan is to make 320 tickets. What percent of the admission tickets has Haley produced so far? what percent What percent of 320 is 112? 100 𝑥 112 made made = 0.01𝑥 ∙ 320 = 112 320 total total 𝑥 320 320𝑥 = 100 112 11200 320 320 1120 32 11200 320 140 4 𝑥 = 35 = = 35 𝑥 = 35
