552 is 69% of what amount

Answer:800

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a percentage, convert to decimal and put it over 100. (69/100)

Then we perform "cross multiplication" where we try to find our b if (a/b = c/d [and our c/d is our percentage*]).

So ([552]/b) = (69/[100])

We obtain (ad/b) = c, which is (55200/b) = 69.

We then divide ad by our c, (55200/69=800), our b=800.

Therefore, 552 is 69% of 800.
