Which equation can be used to represent the statement? The sum of one-sixth of a number and negative two is equal to negative two-thirds.
1. One-sixth + n = negative 2 + two-thirds
2. One-sixth + n = negative 2 + (negative two-thirds)
3. One-sixth n + 2 = negative two-thirds
4. One-sixth n minus 2 = negative two-thirds

4. One-sixth n minus 2 = negative two-thirds

Step-by-step explanation:

4. One-sixth n minus 2 = negative two-thirds

arrange the equations with like terms in columns.

analyze the coefficients of x or y.

add the equations and solve for the remaining variable.

substitute the value into either equation and solve.

check the solution.

step-by-step explanation:

26 is 33.33% of 78

step-by-step explanation:

26 is what percent of 78?

26 is p% of 78

equation: y = p% * x

solving our equation for p

p% = y/x

p% = 26/78

p = 0.3333

convert decimal to percent:

p% = 0.3333 * 100 = 33.33%
