76% of 180 estimate

Question

estimate your answer

 

Answer 1

As an estimate I would say that 76% is real close to 75% or 3/4

 

(3/4)(180) = 3(45) = 135

Estimate... just over 135 so about 136

 

Arturo showed the actual answer is 136.8

 

Note: You can also go from the 75% = 135 and then

look at 1% = .01 ... .01(180)=1.8... 135 + 1.8 = 136.8

Answer 2

Do this as a proportion.

 

76/100 = x/180

 

x = 180(76/100) = 136.8
