If 55% is 204, then what is the total?

Question

I have a student who is asking me this, he has an ALEKS account and has mastered 204 topics, but wants to know how many topics there are to advance on to the next level of ALEKS.

Answer 1

If the question is: If 55% of the course is 204 topics, who many more topic to completion?

0.55t = 204

t = 370.909090...

 

So he has 166 topics to complete.
