Answer:

92.5

Step-by-step explanation:

18.5

[tex] \frac{18.5}{100} \times 500 \\ \\ [/tex]

100 times 5 is 500

so 100 is cancelled and 500 becomes 5

therefore 18.5 times 5 is equal to 92.5

Answer:

92 1/2   or   92.5

Step-by-step explanation:

how to solve?

Put it into a percent proportion :D!

Percent proportion is is/of=%/100 or a/w=p/100

The a stands for "part"

and the w stands for "whole"

p stands for "percent"

Is/of=%/100 will help you figure it out if it's in a mathmatical sentence.

Since they did NOT give you what the "is" is, you put the variable "a"

a/   =

Next,

Since it said "of"

You put of underneath the unknown number "is" (a)

a/500=

Now put in the percent

a/500=18.5/100

Now cross multiply!

Then you should get 92.5!

HOPE THIS HELPS :DDD
