Problema Solution

The percent p of 652 that is represented by the number N

Answer provided by our tutors

the problem statement is ambiguous, we take 'p' as a decimal for percentage; if 'N' is the percent of 652, then:

p*652=N

in contrast, if 'p' is a percentage (80% rather than 0.80), then 'p' would be divided by 100:

(p/100)*652=N
