How is 75% of 60 minutes 45?

75% of a number is the same thing as 3/4 of the number.

so for example, divide 100 by 4. you get 25 right?

right, so multiply 25 by 3 and you get 75. That's what 3/4 of something is.

now divide 60 by 4. you get 15 right?

right, so multiply 15 by 3, and you get 45 :)))

that's why 75% of 60 is 45.

i hope this helps!!

BTW when you get a question with percentages, you can flip them! In this case it doesn't really help to do so, but for example if you had a question asking:

what is 16% of 50?

FLIP IT. it's the same thing as 50% of 16

step-by-step explanation:

(s)he  is right it would be 5.5% because it is smaller than 15.5% or anything smaller than 15.5% in general

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!
